CVE-2025-61536 Details
Description
FelixRiddle dev-jobs-handlebars 1.0 uses absolute password-reset (magic) links using the untrusted `req.headers.host` header and forces the `http://` scheme. An attacker who can control the `Host` header (or exploit a misconfigured proxy/load-balancer that forwards the header unchanged) can cause reset links to point to attacker-controlled domains or be delivered via insecure HTTP, enabling token theft, phishing, and account takeover.
A host header injection vulnerability has been identified in FelixRiddle dev-jobs-handlebars version 1.0. This issue arises because the application generates password reset links using the untrusted 'Host' header from the request, without proper validation. The vulnerability is further compounded by the application forcing the 'http://' scheme, which could lead to the injection of malicious domains into the reset links. An attacker who can manipulate the 'Host' header, or exploit a misconfigured proxy or load balancer that forwards the header unchanged, could cause the reset links to point to an attacker-controlled domain or be sent via insecure HTTP. This exploitation could result in token theft, phishing attacks, and account takeover.
