DescriptionCVE.org

wger before 2.6 (affected versions <= 2.5.0) contains an open redirect vulnerability in the trainer_login view (wger/core/views/user.py). After a trainer enters impersonation mode, the view redirects to the user-supplied 'next' GET parameter via HttpResponseRedirect() without validating it with url_has_allowed_host_and_scheme(). An attacker who delivers a crafted link to an authenticated trainer can redirect the trainer's browser to an attacker-controlled domain, enabling phishing and leaking the wger URL structure (including the impersonated user's user_pk) via the Referer header.

AnalysisAI

Open redirect in wger's trainer_login view allows an attacker to redirect an authenticated trainer's browser to an arbitrary external domain immediately after impersonation mode is established. The root cause is in wger/core/views/user.py (~line 203), where HttpResponseRedirect(request.GET['next']) is called without invoking Django's url_has_allowed_host_and_scheme() guard, allowing any URL - including off-host ones - to be supplied via the ?next= GET parameter. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The victim must hold an active, authenticated wger session with the `gym.gym_trainer` permission - anonymous or regular non-trainer users cannot reach the impersonation code path. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P, score 5.1) accurately characterises the attack profile: network-reachable with low complexity, but gated behind an authenticated trainer session and a social-engineering step requiring the trainer to interact with a crafted link. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to wger 2.6 or later, which fixes the vulnerability by adding a `url_has_allowed_host_and_scheme()` check in `wger/core/views/user.py` before issuing the redirect, falling back to `reverse('core:index')` for any URL that fails validation. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
