CVE-2025-61669
MEDIUM6.1EPSS 0.01%Jupyter Server has an open redirection vulnerability in `next` query parameter
Published: 5/5/2026Modified: 5/20/2026
Description
Jupyter Server is the backend for Jupyter web applications. In jupyter_server versions through 2.17.0, the next query parameter in the login flow is insufficiently validated in `LoginFormHandler._redirect_safe()`, which allows redirects to arbitrary external domains via values such as `///example.com`. An attacker can use a crafted login URL to redirect users to a malicious site and facilitate phishing attacks. This issue is fixed in version 2.18.0.
