Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Open redirect (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-44681)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect users to an attacker-controlled URL.
The vulnerability exists due to url redirection to an untrusted site in OpenIDImplicitGrant and OpenIDHybridGrant authorization request validation when processing authorization requests that omit the openid scope. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted authorization request with an attacker-controlled redirect_uri to redirect users to an attacker-controlled URL.
Exploitation requires an authorization server deployment that registers the OIDC Implicit or Hybrid grant types, and user interaction is required.
