CVE-2024-13362: Freemius <= 2.10.1 – Reflected DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via url Parameter (post-list-designer)

Severity Medium (CVSS 6.1)
CWE 79
Vulnerable Version 3.3.7
Patched Version 3.3.8
Disclosed April 29, 2026

Analysis Overview

Atomic Edge analysis of CVE-2024-13362:
This is a reflected DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Freemius SDK library used by multiple WordPress plugins and themes, including ‘Post List Designer by Category’ (versions <= 3.3.7 / Freemius <= 2.10.1). An unauthenticated attacker can inject arbitrary JavaScript payloads via the `url` parameter, leading to script execution in the browser of a victim who clicks a crafted link. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 6.1 (Medium).

The root cause is insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the `url` parameter processed by the `class-freemius.php` file. The vulnerable code path is located in the SDK's admin notice handling logic, specifically in the `_add_sticky_dismiss_javascript()` method at line 197 of `class-fs-admin-notice-manager.php`. The URL parameter is used without proper escaping before being rendered into HTML, allowing attackers to inject “ tags or event handlers like `onload` or `onerror`. The vulnerable parameter is passed through trial promotion and other admin notice flows.

Exploitation requires an authenticated user (or a victim tricked into clicking a crafted link) to navigate to an admin page that renders the Freemius SDK’s admin notices. The attacker crafts a URL such as: `http://target.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=some-freemius-page&url=javascript:alert(document.cookie)` or injects an XSS vector like `&url=”>alert(1)`. Since the `url` parameter is reflected without sanitization in the DOM, the attacker’s payload executes in the victim’s session. No authentication is required to trigger the reflected XSS if the Freemius SDK processes the parameter before authentication checks.

The patch, introduced in Freemius SDK version 2.9.1 and later refined through 2.11.0, adds input validation and output escaping for the `url` parameter. Specifically, the `get_option()` and `get_bool_option()` functions now sanitize the parameter. The `_add_sticky_dismiss_javascript()` method now ensures the URL is properly escaped before output. Additionally, the patch introduces the `maybe_schedule_install_sync_cron()` method to replace the blocking `schedule_install_sync()` call, but this is unrelated to the XSS fix. The critical change is the addition of escaping functions like `esc_url()` or `esc_js()` on the URL before rendering it into the HTML response.

If successfully exploited, an unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the victim’s WordPress admin session. This could lead to session hijacking, theft of authentication cookies, defacement, redirection to malicious sites, or phishing attacks. The attacker could also exfiltrate sensitive data such as user credentials, API keys, or nonces to perform privileged actions on behalf of the victim. The severity is moderate (CVSS 6.1) due to the need for user interaction (clicking a link), but the impact is significant because the vulnerability affects many plugins using the Freemius SDK.
