GHSA-WQV2-4WPG-8HC9
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-12-10 17:18 – Updated: 2026-02-02 16:29Summary
redirect_url is treated as safe when url.Parse(...).IsAbs() is false. Protocol-relative URLs like //ikotaslabs.com have an empty scheme and pass that check, allowing post-login redirects to attacker-controlled sites.
Details
url.Parse("//ikotaslabs.com")=> empty Scheme, Host="ikotaslabs.com".IsAbs()returns false for//ikotaslabs.com, so the code treats it as allowed.- Browser resolves
//ikotaslabs.comto current-origin scheme (e.g.https://ikotaslabs.com), enabling phishing flows after login.
PoC
- Send or visit:
http://localhost/login?redirect_url=//ikotaslabs.com - Complete normal login flow.
- After login the app redirects to
https://ikotaslabs.com(orhttp://depending on origin).
