Technical details

An open redirect vulnerability (CWE-601) exists in the social login component of Venueless. The application fails to properly validate the destination URL in the redirect parameter after a user completes the social authentication process. A remote attacker can craft a URL that leverages the trusted domain of the Venueless instance to redirect authenticated users to an arbitrary external site. Exploitation requires the attacker to have low privileges and for a victim to interact with the malicious link. The issue has been addressed in commit d27864a7.
