CVE-2024-13362: Freemius <= 2.10.1 – Reflected DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via url Parameter (contact-form-7-multi-step-module)

Severity Medium (CVSS 6.1)
CWE 79
Vulnerable Version 4.4.1
Patched Version 4.4.2
Disclosed April 29, 2026

Analysis Overview

Atomic Edge analysis of CVE-2024-13362:

This vulnerability is a reflected DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Freemius SDK library (versions up to 2.10.1) as bundled with multiple WordPress plugins and themes. The flaw resides in the URL handling logic, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript through crafted URLs. The CVSS score is 6.1 (Medium).

The root cause is insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the URL parameter in the Freemius SDK’s pricing page or trial promotion template. Specifically, the vulnerability manifests in the `class-freemius.php` file around the trial promotion message construction (line 24000). The patch shows that the trial promotion message previously concatenated user-controlled URL values into an HTML anchor tag without proper escaping. The vulnerable code used a `` pattern with a direct `%s` placeholder for the URL. The SDK also did not validate or escape the URL parameter before embedding it into the page DOM, making it susceptible to DOM-based XSS when JavaScript reads from `location.hash` or `location.search` and writes into the DOM.

Exploitation requires tricking an authenticated administrator into clicking a crafted link. The attacker constructs a URL like `https://target.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=freemius-pricing#alert(1)` or using a `url` parameter with a `javascript:` or `data:` scheme. When the administrator visits the pricing page or the Freemius settings page, the unescaped `url` parameter or hash fragment is rendered into the DOM, allowing arbitrary script execution. Because the vulnerable code is in the admin area, the attacker needs to socially engineer an admin to click the malicious link, but no additional privileges are required to generate or send the link.

The patch, as part of Freemius SDK version 2.11.0, refactors the trial promotion message construction. It moves from a raw string concatenation (`…`) to a safer structure using `

` containers and separating the message text from the button markup. The patch also adds a filter `trial_promotion_message` that applies to the message text alone, not the entire HTML block, allowing developers to sanitize the text. The most critical change is that the URL is no longer directly embedded without escaping; the patch ensures output escaping functions (like `esc_url()`) are applied by the application layer or through the filter. Additionally, the patch introduces a `maybe_schedule_install_sync_cron()` method that blocks execution if not in the admin area, reducing the attack surface for unauthenticated access to sensitive functionality.

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of a logged-in administrator’s browser session. This can lead to session hijacking, theft of authentication cookies, forced privilege escalation (by creating new admin users), or injection of malicious content into the WordPress admin dashboard. The impact is severe because it targets high-privilege users and can lead to full site compromise.
