# Open URL Redirection
2017-07-06 19:02:19 +00:00
Unvalidated redirects and forwards are possible when a web application accepts untrusted input that could cause the web application to redirect the request to a URL contained within untrusted input. By modifying untrusted URL input to a malicious site, an attacker may successfully launch a phishing scam and steal user credentials. Because the server name in the modified link is identical to the original site, phishing attempts may have a more trustworthy appearance. Unvalidated redirect and forward attacks can also be used to maliciously craft a URL that would pass the application’ s access control check and then forward the attacker to privileged functions that they would normally not be able to access.

## Fuzzing
Replace www.whitelisteddomain.tld from *Open-Redirect-payloads.txt* with a specific white listed domain in your test case
To do this simply modify the WHITELISTEDDOMAIN with value www.test.com to your test case URL.
```
WHITELISTEDDOMAIN="www.test.com" & & sed 's/www.whitelisteddomain.tld/'"$WHITELISTEDDOMAIN"'/' Open-Redirect-payloads.txt > Open-Redirect-payloads-burp-"$WHITELISTEDDOMAIN".txt & & echo "$WHITELISTEDDOMAIN" | awk -F. '{print "https://"$0"."$NF}' >> Open-Redirect-payloads-burp-"$WHITELISTEDDOMAIN".txt
```
