CVE-2024-28239Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Credential phishing via unchecked post-login redirect

Published Mar 12, 2024 · Updated Aug 22, 2024

Open redirect in Directus before 10.10.0 allows remote attackers to send SSO users to an attacker-chosen site after login. The OAuth2, OpenID, and SAML login routers preserved the unvalidated redirect query value in signed state and used it after authentication. A configured SSO provider and interaction with a crafted Directus login link are required; the redirect supports credential phishing but does not expose Directus credentials directly.
