Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied data in the ChangeSharedFilterOwner resource. A remote attacker can create a link that leads to a trusted website, however, when clicked, redirects the victim to arbitrary domain and obtain a user's Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) token in some cases.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to perform a phishing attack and steal potentially sensitive information.
