Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
GeoNetwork versions 3.12.0 through 3.12.12, 4.0.0-alpha.1 through 4.0.6, 4.2.0 before 4.2.16, and 4.4.0 before 4.4.11 contain an open redirect bypass in the post-login redirect handling of their OAuth2/OIDC and Keycloak login. An attacker can craft a link to a login endpoint that sends a victim to an external site after login, which can enable phishing, with no effect on authentication or GeoNetwork data. Upgrade to 4.2.16 or 4.4.11; the 3.x and 4.0.x lines are unmaintained and will not receive a fix.
