An Open redirect vulnerability was found in ovirt-engine versions 4.4 and earlier, where it allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and attempt phishing attacks. Once the target has opened the malicious URL in their browser, the critical part of the URL is no longer visible. The highest threat from this vulnerability is on confidentiality.
The user interface (UI) does not properly represent critical information to the user, allowing the information - or its source - to be obscured or spoofed. This is often a component in phishing attacks.
The web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect.
