Open Redirect in collectiveaccess/providence
Reported on

Description
I find a way to bypass the Open Redirect at the login page with the "redirect" parameter.
Vulnerable parameter
redirect
Payload
https://demo.collectiveaccess.org@google.com
Proof of Concept
Send users the following login link https://demo.collectiveaccess.org/index.php/system/auth/login?redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fdemo.collectiveaccess.org@google.com
After users use their registered account to log in, they will be redirected to google.com
Impact
This functionality is not restricted to relative URLs within the application and could be leveraged by an attacker to fool an end-user into believing that a malicious URL they were redirected to is valid. By modifying the URL value to a malicious site, an attacker may successfully launch a phishing scam and steal user credentials.
