Description
Impact
fosite#400 (released as v0.30.2) introduced a new feature for handling redirect URLs pointing to loopback interfaces (rfc8252#section-7.3). As part of that change new behavior was introduced which failed to respect the redirect URL's (only for loopback interfaces!) query parameters
1. Registering a client with allowed redirect URL `http://127.0.0.1/callback`
2. Performing OAuth2 flow and requesting redirect URL `http://127.0.0.1/callback?bar=foo`
3. Instead of an error, the browser is redirected to `http://127.0.0.1/callback?bar=foo` with a potentially successful OAuth2 response.
as well as the host parameter (as long as the host is a loopback interface):
1. Registering a client with allowed redirect URL `https://example.com/callback`
2. Performing OAuth2 flow and requesting redirect URL `http://127.0.0.1/callback`
3. Instead of an error, the browser is redirected to `http://127.0.0.1/callback` with a potentially successful OAuth2 response.
These bugs are only applicable in scenarios where the attacker has control over the loopback interface (`localhost`, `127.0.0.1`, `[::1]`) where the browser performing the OAuth2 flow is running.
