Overview

directus is a Directus is a real-time API and App dashboard for managing SQL database content.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Open Redirect via the isLoginRedirectAllowed function during the authentication flow. An attacker can redirect users to arbitrary external domains by crafting URLs with malformed path segments that bypass server-side validation but are interpreted as external by browsers. This can lead to users being redirected to attacker-controlled sites after authentication, potentially resulting in phishing or credential theft.
