DescriptionCVE.org

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.2, the user edit flow stores url()->previous() from the attacker-controlled Referer header into Laravel’s intended URL session value and later uses redirect()->intended(...) when redirect_option=back is submitted, allowing Snipe-IT to be used as a trusted redirector after a legitimate user edit action. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.2.

AnalysisAI

Open redirect in Snipe-IT prior to 8.6.2 allows unauthenticated attackers to abuse the application as a trusted redirector against authenticated users. The user edit workflow persists the HTTP Referer header - which an attacker can control - into Laravel's session-stored intended URL, then unconditionally honors it via redirect()->intended() when redirect_option=back is submitted by a legitimate user. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Attacker hosts page that redirects to Snipe-IT user edit URL
Delivery
Victim browses attacker link, browser sends attacker domain as Referer
Exploit
Laravel stores attacker URL in session as intended destination
Execution
Victim completes user edit form with redirect_option=back
Persist
Snipe-IT issues 302 redirect to attacker-controlled site
Impact
Victim lands on attacker phishing page

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires three concurrent conditions: first, a legitimate Snipe-IT user must be authenticated (they must have a valid session to access the user edit workflow); second, that user must be induced to navigate to the Snipe-IT user edit page via a link or redirect originating from an attacker-controlled page, causing the browser to populate the Referer header with the attacker's URL; third, the victim must submit the user edit form with the redirect_option=back parameter present. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.1 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N accurately reflects the real-world risk profile. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker hosts a page that issues a redirect to Snipe-IT's user edit URL, causing the victim's browser to send the attacker's domain in the Referer header. When the authenticated Snipe-IT user completes the edit form (which includes redirect_option=back), the application redirects them to the attacker's site - where a spoofed Snipe-IT login page can harvest credentials. …
Remediation Upgrade Snipe-IT to version 8.6.2 or later; this is the vendor-released patch per the GitHub release at https://github.com/grokability/snipe-it/releases/tag/v8.6.2 and the fix commit f4cac9635868c020174361ad7a80b2545a4e7623. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
