What is CVE-2026-55237?

AutoGPT, a renowned workflow automation platform, is susceptible to a DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue that affects versions prior to 0.6.62. The flaw occurs on the signup page due to the application’s failure to validate a URL parameter (next) properly, leading to a possible client-side redirect. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted link to authenticated users, potentially executing arbitrary JavaScript within their browsers. This exploitation can result in serious consequences, including credential theft, unauthorized internal network access, and actions taken on behalf of the victim. Users are urged to upgrade to version 0.6.62 to mitigate this security risk.
