User redirection via undisclosed URL validation flaw

Published Feb 24, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Open redirect in HPE OneView Global Dashboard before 2.5 allows remote attackers to send users to untrusted sites via crafted URLs. HPE has not published the affected request handler, parameter, or validation failure that permits the redirect. Exploitation requires a user to follow a crafted link; the redirect can expose the user to attacker-controlled content, with no reported direct effect on appliance availability.
