Technical details

An open redirect vulnerability (CWE-601) exists in HotelRunner B2B due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input used in redirection targets. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by crafting a URL that, when visited by a legitimate user, redirects them to an arbitrary external domain. This flaw also facilitates 'forceful browsing' techniques. The vulnerability requires minimal user interaction (clicking a link) and is rated with a CVSS score of 4.7. A fix was implemented in the version released on or after June 4, 2025.
