Kerri Shotts commented on CB-12430:
-----------------------------------

The report indicates a specific call containing a URL redirection. Please 
provide more information as to where the flaw was found, what specific 
redirection is occurring, what version of Cordova and associated Cordova 
platforms you are using, and what plugins (if any) you have in the project.

Do keep in mind that Cordova uses a web view, so at some point, {{loadUrl}} is 
going to be invoked at some point. That in and of itself is not necessarily 
problematic -- it is the app developer's responsibility to ensure that they 
don't instruct Cordova to load malicious resources.

> In VARACODE Scan of android Application following flaw was observed.
> Attack Vector: android.webkit.WebView.loadUrl
> Description: This call to android.webkit.WebView.loadUrl() contains a URL 
> redirection to untrusted site flaw. Writing unsanitized user-supplied input 
> into a URL value could cause the web application to redirect the request to 
> the specified URL, leading to phishing attempts to steal user credentials.
