Re:OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Redirect Vulnerability by patio11 on Friday May 02, 2014 @01:57PM (#7687124)
Typically you pre-register a whitelist of redirect URLs with your OAuth provider. For example, you might whitelist example.com/app/* because you control the app and assume that you won't do anything evil. If /app/ includes an open redirect (generally considered to be Severity: Nominal), your application can be made to attack every user who grants it permissions, to the limit of the permissions they entrust your application with.
