Severity
Summary
Miniflux 2 is an open source feed reader. Prior to 2.3.1, IsRelativePath in internal/urllib/url.go accepts redirect targets containing backslashes because Go URL parsing treats them as path characters. Browser backslash normalization converts them to forward slashes. An unauthenticated attacker can provide such a redirect_url value to the login flow, bypass the relative-path and host checks, and redirect a victim to an attacker-controlled external site. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.1.

Antes de la versi\u00f3n 2.3.1, IsRelativePath en internal/urllib/url.go acepta objetivos de redirecci\u00f3n que contienen barras invertidas porque el an\u00e1lisis de URL de Go las trata como caracteres de ruta. La normalizaci\u00f3n de barras invertidas del navegador las convierte en barras diagonales. Un atacante no autenticado puede proporcionar un valor de redirect_url de este tipo al flujo de inicio de sesi\u00f3n, eludir las comprobaciones de ruta relativa y de host, y redirigir a una v\u00edctima a un sitio externo controlado por el atacante. Este problema se solucion\u00f3 en la versi\u00f3n 2.3.1."
