## Technical details

The RoleAssignPending component uses an unvalidated redirect URL from build configuration (NEXT_PUBLIC_LOGIN_URL) without proper validation of the destination. An attacker can craft a malicious URL that redirects authenticated users to an external site, exploiting the lack of URL validation. This is a network-accessible vulnerability that requires social engineering to trick users into clicking a crafted link.
