CVE-2024-13362: Freemius <= 2.10.1 – Reflected DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via url Parameter (aibuddy-openai-chatgpt)

Severity Medium (CVSS 6.1)
CWE 79
Vulnerable Version 1.7.2
Patched Version 1.8.5
Disclosed April 29, 2026

Analysis Overview

Atomic Edge analysis of CVE-2024-13362:

This is a reflected DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in the Freemius SDK framework versions <= 2.10.1, affecting various WordPress plugins and themes that include it. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 6.1 (Medium) and allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts into a page via the `url` parameter. The attack requires user interaction (e.g., clicking a crafted link).

Root Cause: The vulnerability originates in the Freemius SDK's JavaScript handling of the `url` GET parameter. When the SDK processes authentication or opt-in callbacks, it reads the `url` parameter from the browser's query string and writes it directly into the DOM without proper sanitization or encoding. The diff shows extensive refactoring of the bundled Freemius library: the entire `freemius/` directory is removed, and the integration is replaced with a Composer-based `vendor/freemius/wordpress-sdk/` dependency. This structural change indicates that the vulnerable code (likely in files like `connect.js`, `account.js`, or similar SDK JavaScript files that handle redirect URLs) was removed. The core issue is that the `url` parameter value was used in DOM manipulation calls (e.g., `window.location` assignments or `innerHTML` sets) without escaping, allowing an attacker to inject `javascript:` URIs or break out of existing script contexts.

Exploitation: An attacker crafts a link containing a malicious `url` parameter. For example: `https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=freemius-optin&url=javascript:alert(document.cookie)`. When a logged-in administrator clicks this link, the Freemius SDK JavaScript reads the `url` parameter and writes it into the page's DOM (e.g., setting `window.location.href` to the attacker-controlled value). The attacker can chain this with a phishing lure. Since the attack is reflected DOM-based, the payload executes only in the victim's browser session without requiring server-side state changes.

Patch Analysis: The patch updates the Freemius SDK from a vulnerable bundled version (path `freemius/`) to the latest version from Composer (`vendor/freemius/wordpress-sdk/`). The older bundled version (shown as removed) contained the vulnerable client-side JavaScript code. The patched version implements proper output encoding for the `url` parameter before DOM manipulation. The diff removes hundreds of lines of the old SDK code, including the vulnerable JavaScript files. The plugin version also advances from 1.7.2 to 1.8.5.

Impact: Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the victim's WordPress admin session. This can be used to steal session cookies, perform administrative actions (e.g., create new admin users, modify content, install plugins), or exfiltrate sensitive data. The attack requires user interaction but does not require authentication, making it a viable phishing vector.
