Technical details
An open redirect vulnerability (CWE-601) exists in Roxy-WI versions 8.2.6.4 and prior within the login flow. The application attempts to validate the 'next' parameter by checking for 'http://' or 'https://' substrings; however, it fails to account for the RFC 3986 userinfo syntax (e.g., @evil.com). When the application constructs the redirect URL as 'https://{request.host}{next_url}', a payload like '@evil.com' results in a URL that modern browsers interpret as having 'evil.com' as the authority. This allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to redirect users to arbitrary external sites via a crafted URL. As of the advisory date, no official patches are available, though the advisory suggests implementing 'urllib.parse' for proper URL validation.
