CVE-2017-1000163

The Phoenix Framework versions 1.0.0 through 1.0.4, 1.1.0 through 1.1.6, 1.2.0, 1.2.2 and 1.3.0-rc.0 are vulnerable to unvalidated URL redirection, which may result in phishing or social engineering attacks.

The Phoenix Framework versions 1.0.0 through 1.0.4, 1.1.0 through 1.1.6, 1.2.0, 1.2.2 and 1.3.0-rc.0 are vulnerable to unvalidated URL redirection, which may result in phishing or social engineering attacks.

The Phoenix team designed Phoenix.Controller.redirect/2 to protect against redirects allowing user input to redirect to an external URL where your application code otherwise assumes a local path redirect. This is why the :to option is used for “local” URL redirects and why you must pass the :external option to intentionally allow external URLs to be redirected to. It has been disclosed that carefully crafted user input may be treated by some browsers as an external URL. An attacker can use this vulnerability to aid in social engineering attacks. The most common use would be to create highly believable phishing attacks. For example, the following user input would pass local URL validation, but be treated by Chrome and Firefox as external URLs: http://localhost:4000/?redirect=/\nexample.com Not all browsers are affected, but latest Chrome and Firefox will issue a get request for example.com and successfully redirect externally
