What is CVE-2024-53264?

CVE-2024-53264 is a medium-severity open redirect vulnerability in github.com/bunkerity/bunkerweb (go), affecting versions < 1.5.11. It is fixed in 1.5.11. Untrusted input controls a URL used for redirection, which can forward users to attacker-controlled sites.

Which versions of github.com/bunkerity/bunkerweb are affected by CVE-2024-53264?

github.com/bunkerity/bunkerweb (go) versions < 1.5.11 is affected.

Is there a fix for CVE-2024-53264?

Yes. CVE-2024-53264 is fixed in 1.5.11. Upgrade to this version or later.

Is CVE-2024-53264 exploitable, and should I be worried?

Whether CVE-2024-53264 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

What actually determines whether CVE-2024-53264 is exploitable, and how bad it is?

Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.

Summary

BunkerWeb has Open Redirect Vulnerability in Loading Page

A open redirect vulnerability exists in the loading endpoint, allowing attackers to redirect authenticated users to arbitrary external URLs via the "next" parameter.

Details:

The loading endpoint accepts and uses an unvalidated "next" parameter for redirects:

PoC:

Visit: /loading?next=https://google.com while authenticated. The page will redirect to google.com.

Impact

This vulnerability could be used in phishing attacks by redirecting users from a legitimate application URL to malicious sites.

Untrusted input controls a URL used for redirection, which can forward users to attacker-controlled sites. Typical impact: phishing and credential harvesting via a trusted domain.

Affected versions

github.com/bunkerity/bunkerweb (< 1.5.11)

Security releases

github.com/bunkerity/bunkerweb → 1.5.11 (go)

Kodem intelligence

Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.

Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.
