Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the PingGateway Fragment Filter feature to be in use, as the open redirect resides specifically in that filter's handling of URLs. The CVSS vector's UI:A metric means a victim must actively interact - typically by clicking an attacker-crafted link to the PingGateway endpoint - so the flaw cannot be triggered without social engineering. No authentication is required (PR:N), making any user with a reachable PingGateway instance a potential delivery target. Limiting factors: the mandatory user interaction, the requirement that the Fragment Filter feature be deployed, and the affected version ranges (7.1.0 and later, 2023.2.0 through 2024.11.1, and 2025.3.0 through 2025.11.1) - instances on fixed builds 2024.11.2, 2025.11.2, or 2026.3.0+ are not affected.

Impact

This is a medium-severity open redirect (CWE-601) with a vendor-assigned CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.1. The provided CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N) indicates network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation requiring no privileges but requiring active user interaction (UI:A) - i.e., a victim must click or follow a crafted link. Impacts are limited to low confidentiality and low integrity on both the vulnerable and a subsequent system (SC:L/SI:L), consistent with the phishing/credential-relay nature of redirect flaws rather than direct system compromise. No EPSS score, CISA KEV listing, or POC indicator is present in the supplied data, so exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' There is no signal conflict: the low CVSS, dependence on user interaction, and lack of code-execution impact all align toward a genuinely lower-tier issue. This is not an emergency patch-tonight item; it is a real but lower-priority finding best remediated in a normal patch cycle, with elevated attention for internet-facing PingGateway deployments used in authentication flows where a redirect can be chained into phishing or OAuth/OIDC token theft.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious URL pointing at a victim organization's PingGateway Fragment Filter endpoint that, once clicked, transparently redirects the user to an attacker-controlled site. Because the link originates from the trusted PingGateway domain, it is used in phishing to harvest credentials or to abuse OAuth/OIDC redirect handling for token interception. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis, and the attack succeeds only if the targeted user actively follows the crafted link (UI:A).

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 06, 2026

Open redirect in the PingGateway Fragment Filter lets unauthenticated remote attackers craft a link that causes the gateway to send a victim to an attacker-controlled destination, with the CVSS 4.0 vector (UI:A) requiring the victim to actively interact with that link; the vendor-assigned base score is 5.1 (medium). Only deployments running PingGateway 7.1.0 and later, 2023.2.0 through 2024.11.1, or 2025.3.0 through 2025.11.1 and actually using the Fragment Filter feature are affected, while builds 2024.11.2, 2025.11.2, and 2026.3.0 or later are fixed. No public exploit code or confirmed active exploitation was identified at time of analysis (no CISA KEV listing), and the combination of mandatory user interaction with low confidentiality/integrity impact keeps practical risk moderate.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to PingGateway 2024.11.2 (for the 2024.11.x line), 2025.11.2 (for the 2025.x line), or 2026.3.0 / later, which contain the fix; download artifacts are available from the Ping Identity product download page at https://product-downloads.pingidentity.com/browse/ig/featured and the fix is described in advisory SECADV202602 at https://support.pingidentity.com/s/article/SECADV202602-Open-Redirect-in-PingGateway-Fragment-Filter, with release history at https://docs.pingidentity.com/pinggateway/release-notes/preface.html. Where immediate upgrade is not possible, the most effective compensating control is to remove the Fragment Filter from the relevant route configuration if fragment handling is not business-critical - the trade-off is that any routing, token, or state behavior that depends on reading the URL fragment will break, so this must be validated in a staging environment first. Alternatively, restrict the filter so that redirect targets are constrained to an explicit allowlist of trusted internal hosts/paths and reject or absolutize any externally supplied destination, accepting that legitimate cross-domain redirects will need to be added back individually. Because the CVSS 4.0 vector is PR:N but UI:A, exposure also depends on user behavior: treat the PingGateway hostname as untrusted for link provenance in phishing defenses and mail/web filtering, and watch logs for Fragment Filter requests whose redirect target resolves outside the organization's domains. Note that no public exploit code or active exploitation was identified at time of analysis, so remediation can proceed on a normal patch cycle rather than emergency timelines, prioritizing internet-facing instances that expose the Fragment Filter endpoint.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw is CWE-601, URL Redirection to Untrusted Site (open redirect), located in PingGateway's Fragment Filter - the component that inspects and processes the URL fragment portion of a request before the gateway issues a redirect. Rather than validating the destination against an allowlist or a fixed relative target, the filter accepts a user-controllable redirect destination, so a crafted request to a PingGateway endpoint resolves to an arbitrary external site. This class of bug is a phishing and credential-harvesting enabler: a link that begins with the trusted PingGateway hostname can bounce the victim to attacker infrastructure, which is also useful for laundering redirects through trusted domains in OAuth/SSO or session-handling flows. The CVSS 4.0 vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A confirms a network-reachable, unauthenticated condition with no special attack requirements, gated only by active user interaction; the independent assessment records the equivalent CVSS 3.1 view as AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, i.e. scope-changed with low confidentiality and integrity impact and no availability impact. No CPE identifiers were supplied in the source data, so affected products are taken from the vendor advisory and release-note references.
