Jupyter Server open redirect vulnerability
Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| PyPI | jupyter-server | < 1.1.1 | 1.1.1 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
_What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?_
Open redirect vulnerability - a maliciously crafted link to a jupyter server could redirect the browser to a different website.
All jupyter servers running without a base_url prefix are technically affected, however, these maliciously crafted links can only be reasonably made for known jupyter server hosts. A link to your jupyter server may *appear* safe, but ultimately redirect to a spoofed server on the public internet. This same vulnerability was patched in upstream notebook v5.7.8.
### Patches
_Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_
Patched in jupyter_server 1.1.1. If upgrade is not available, a workaround can be to run your server on a url prefix:
```
jupyter server --ServerApp.base_url=/jupyter/
```
