Open Redirection attack
Sample URL.
Scenario 1: Normal Login process
The first address, redirects users to the Home/Index after successful Login
1. http://www.codingtips.net/Account/login?ReturnUrl=/Home/Index
Scenario 2: Hacked /Tampered URL.
The second address redirects users to the Unknown website, it means the second address is manipulated by the hackers.
2. http://www.codingtips.net/Account/login?ReturnUrl=www.UnknownSite.com
Remedy: Prevent URL redirection to unknown site. If URL tampered it will always return to home page.
private ActionResult Redirect(string returnUrl)
{
if (Url.IsLocalUrl(returnUrl))
{
return Redirect(returnUrl);
}
else
{
return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
}
}
