AI Analysis

Impact

An open redirect flaw exists in the handleRequest function of the Clawhost Reverse Proxy component. Manipulating the token argument allows a remote attacker to redirect users to arbitrary URLs, creating opportunities for phishing, credential theft, or malicious site exploitation. The vulnerability can be triggered from outside the network and the exploitation method is publicly available.

Affected Systems

The defect affects any installation of antoinersx Clawhost running version 0.0.45 or earlier. Users of the Reverse Proxy service should verify their deployment version against this threshold.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.3 signals a moderate severity. EPSS data is not provided, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Despite the lack of a CVE-indexed patch, the publicly known exploit route and remote execution potential raise the risk of phishing campaigns against users of the affected system.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Check the vendor’s website or support channels for an update that addresses the token handling logic.
