Discussion

Drupal Core URI Redirection Vulnerability

Drupal is prone to an open-redirection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can leverage this issue by constructing a crafted URI and enticing a user to follow it. When an unsuspecting victim follows the link, they may be redirected to an attacker-controlled site; this may aid in phishing attacks. Other attacks are possible.

Drupal versions 7.x through 7.12 are vulnerable.
