Snipe-IT has an open redirect vulnerability
The advisory, in context
Open redirect vulnerability in Snipe-IT allows attackers to redirect users to malicious sites via unvalidated HTTP Referer header stored in session variable.
Impact
- Phishing: Redirect users to fake login pages to steal credentials
- Session Hijacking: Redirect to attacker site that captures session cookies via JavaScript
- Malware Distribution: Redirect to sites hosting malware or drive-by downloads
- Reputation Damage: Users lose trust when redirected to malicious sites from legitimate application
- Social Engineering: Use trusted Snipe-IT domain to increase phishing success rate
When the user clicks "Save", the application:
- Processes the form
- Checks
redirect_option(if set to 'back') - Calls
Helper::getRedirectOption() - Retrieves
back_urlfrom session:https://evil.com/phishing?target=snipeit - Executes
redirect()->to($backUrl) - User is redirected to attacker's site
This would still require session poisoning, so the actual practical threat here is minimal.
