Application Passwords <= 0.1.3 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via reject_url

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
CVE CVE-2025-13308
CVSS Medium (5.4)
Publicly Published December 5, 2025
Last Updated December 6, 2025
Researcher Rafshanzani Suhada
Description

The Application Passwords plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'reject_url' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 0.1.3. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied URLs, which allows javascript: URI schemes to be embedded in the reject_url parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when a user clicks the "No, I do not approve of this connection" button, granted they can successfully trick the victim into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
