Open redirect via unvalidated SAML RelayState
Published Jan 18, 2024 · Updated Jun 17, 2025
Open redirect in Nextcloud User Saml 5.0.0 through 5.1.4, 5.2.0 through 5.2.4, and 6.0.0 allows remote attackers to redirect users via RelayState. The assertion consumer uses a RelayState value as the post-authentication HTTP redirect target without restricting it to a trusted Nextcloud URL. Exploitation requires a victim to follow an attacker-supplied link and complete the SAML flow, after which the browser reaches an attacker-controlled site.
