CVE-2025-62379
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
Reflex is a library to build full-stack web apps in pure Python. In versions 0.5.4 through 0.8.14, the /auth-codespace endpoint automatically assigns the redirect_to query parameter value directly to client-side links without any validation and triggers automatic clicks when the page loads in a GitHub Codespaces environment. This allows attackers to redirect users to arbitrary external URLs. The vulnerable route is only registered when a Codespaces environment is detected, and the detection is controlled by environment variables. The same behavior can be activated in production if the GITHUB_CODESPACES_PORT_FORWARDING_DOMAIN environment variable is set. The vulnerability occurs because the code assigns the redirect_to query parameter directly to a.href without any validation and immediately triggers a click (automatic navigation), allowing users to be sent to arbitrary external domains. The execution condition is based on the presence of a sessionStorage flag, meaning it triggers immediately on first visits or in incognito/private browsing windows, with no server-side origin/scheme whitelist or internal path enforcement defenses in place. This issue has been patched in version 0.8.15. As a workaround, users can ensure that GITHUB_CODESPACES_PORT_FORWARDING_DOMAIN is not set in a production environment.

"value": "Reflex es una biblioteca para construir aplicaciones web full-stack en Python puro. En las versiones 0.5.4 a 0.8.14, el endpoint /auth-codespace asigna automáticamente el valor del parámetro de consulta redirect_to directamente a los enlaces del lado del cliente sin ninguna validación y activa clics automáticos cuando la página se carga en un entorno de GitHub Codespaces. Esto permite a los atacantes redirigir a los usuarios a URL externas arbitrarias. La ruta vulnerable solo se registra cuando se detecta un entorno de Codespaces, y la detección está controlada por variables de entorno. El mismo comportamiento puede activarse en producción si la variable de entorno GITHUB_CODESPACES_PORT_FORWARDING_DOMAIN está configurada. La vulnerabilidad ocurre porque el código asigna el parámetro de consulta redirect_to directamente a a.href sin ninguna validación e inmediatamente activa un clic (navegación automática), permitiendo que los usuarios sean enviados a dominios externos arbitrarios. La condición de ejecución se basa en la presencia de una bandera de sessionStorage, lo que significa que se activa inmediatamente en las primeras visitas o en ventanas de navegación de incógnito/privada, sin defensas de lista blanca de origen/esquema del lado del servidor o de aplicación de rutas internas implementadas. Este problema ha sido parcheado en la versión 0.8.15. Como solución alternativa, los usuarios pueden asegurarse de que GITHUB_CODESPACES_PORT_FORWARDING_DOMAIN no esté configurado en un entorno de producción."
