Summary
Beckhoff: Open redirect in TwinCAT/BSD package authelia-bhf
Notes
Summary: With TwinCAT/BSD based products the HTTPS request to the Authelia login page accepts user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site.
Impact: By default TwinCAT/BSD based products have Authelia installed and configured to perform the user authentication for web applications hosted on a target. This installation and configuration is provided with the package named 'authelia-bhf'. With the affected versions of the package Authelia is configured to accept user-controlled input via URL parameter that specifies a link which can then be a link to an arbitrary external site. Please note: The sources for the package 'authelia-bhf' are a fork from the original Open Source Software called 'Authelia'. The vulnerability was exclusively introduced with that fork and has been removed there. It never became part of 'Authelia'.
Mitigation: Use firewall or web-proxy technology at your network perimeter which allow internal clients to access only trusted external sites directly.
Remediation: Please update to a recent version of the affected product.
CWE-601 - URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')
Mitigation Use firewall or web-proxy technology at your network perimeter which allow internal clients to access only trusted external sites directly.
Vendor Fix Please update to a recent version of the affected product.
