CVE-2021-32805
URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect') in Flask-AppBuilder
Flask-AppBuilder is an application development framework, built on top of Flask. In affected versions if using Flask-AppBuilder OAuth, an attacker can share a carefully crafted URL with a trusted domain for an application built with Flask-AppBuilder, this URL can redirect a user to a malicious site. This is an open redirect vulnerability. To resolve this issue upgrade to Flask-AppBuilder 3.2.2 or above. If upgrading is infeasible users may filter HTTP traffic containing ?next={next-site} where the next-site domain is different from the application you are protecting as a workaround.
