Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
An issue was discovered in xdLocalStorage through 2.0.5. The postData() function in xdLocalStoragePostMessageApi.js specifies the wildcard () as the targetOrigin when calling the postMessage() function on the parent object. Therefore any domain can load the application hosting the "magical iframe" and receive the messages that the "magical iframe" sends.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2020-11610 Advisory: xdlocalstorage does not verify request origin IDs: CVE-2020-11610, GHSA-mr5m-2385-2vcp Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2020-11610 (revision 2, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 12:22 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: High (CVSS 8.8) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - npm xdlocalstorage: affected <= 2.0.5 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `npm ls xdlocalstorage --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`. ## Supported action No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on xdlocalstorage. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-mr5m-2385-2vcp (OSV record GHSA-mr5m-2385-2vcp lists affected ranges: npm xdlocalstorage >=0 <=2.0.5) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-mr5m-2385-2vcp (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-mr5m-2385-2vcp lists affected ranges: npm xdlocalstorage >=0 <=2.0.5) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
