To fix the problem, we need to ensure that the redirection URL is safe and not manipulated by an attacker. The best way to do this is to validate the URL before performing the redirect. In this case, we can use Django's url_has_allowed_host_and_scheme function to check that the URL is safe to redirect to. This function ensures that the URL is either relative or belongs to an allowed host.
We will:
- Import
url_has_allowed_host_and_schemefromdjango.utils.http. - Use this function to validate
request.pathbefore redirecting.
