Open redirect at https://confluence.external-share.com/
Description
Below is the issue as described by a bugcrowd user
I found a vulnerability on the External Share for Confluence where the redirect= parameter can point to any website like http://evil.com . As an attacker I can direct the victim to the malicious, malware or phishing website.
NOTE
Domain https://confluence.external-share.com/ its from the apps, when you create external share you will get the domain.
Steps to reproduce
-
Go to https://confluence.external-share.com/active-user-session-check?uuid=xxxs&redirect=https://evil.com
-
You will redirect to http://evil.com
Impact
Open redirection attacks are most commonly used to support phishing attacks, or redirect users to malicious websites.
What to verify:
-
The
redirectparameter on/active-user-session-checkno longer allows redirection to external or untrusted hosts (e.g.redirect=https://evil.comshould fallback to the application's main page). -
Redirection to the application's own domain works correctly.
-
Redirection to a configured custom domain works correctly.
-
Password-protected shares correctly redirect after successful authentication.
Confirmed fixed in QA env
