# CVE-2026-45307: Speakr: Open redirect in is\_safe\_url via parser mismatch on next parameter

- Severity: CVSS 6.1 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 0.8.20-alpha
- Published: 2026-05-28 · Updated: 2026-05-28

## Affected

- murtaza-nasir speakr: fixed in 0.8.20-alpha

## Description

Speakr is a personal, self-hosted web application designed for transcribing audio recordings. Prior to 0.8.20-alpha, the is_safe_url() helper used to validate post-login redirect targets applied urljoin(request.host_url, target) before parsing, while the controller passed the raw target to redirect(). A scheme-relative input such as ////evil.com resolved to a same-host URL during validation but was emitted verbatim in the Location header, where the browser interpreted it as a network-path-relative redirect to an attacker-controlled host. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.20-alpha.
