CVE-2017-16652
This Open redirect vulnerability can be exploited for example to mount effective phishing attacks.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.78%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
An issue was discovered in Symfony 2.7.x before 2.7.38, 2.8.x before 2.8.31, 3.2.x before 3.2.14, and 3.3.x before 3.3.13. DefaultAuthenticationSuccessHandler or DefaultAuthenticationFailureHandler takes the content of the _target_path parameter and generates a redirect response, but no check is performed on the path, which could be an absolute URL to an external domain. This Open redirect vulnerability can be exploited for example to mount effective phishing attacks.
