301party.com: Intentionally open redirect

Created by wtfismyip.com - had a good laugh
mmsc•6mo ago
Is there a bug bounty? I found an open redirect.
mmastrac•6mo ago
I think you can report them here: http://localhost.301party.com

"You cannot add 127.0.0.1 or localhost as a callback URL"

...watch me.

russelg•6mo ago
I was wondering about use cases for this, this makes so much sense now.
zzo38computer•6mo ago
Fortunately, redirection to a file: URL will result in a browser error. Unfortunately, the browser does not explain what is wrong (although the redirect can be viewed in the developer tools, you might not know to look there, and it still doesn't have an error message to explain the problem).
jasonjayr•6mo ago
While that is true for modern browsers, some backend http client libraries will follow the redirects. So; if you have a system that given an URL that fetches + displays the content, and you use a service that issues redirects to things like the AWS metadata service, or file:///etc/passwd --- well, the backend library is gonna redirect to the bad place, if it only checks the initially submitted url.

  metadata.301party.com: 169.254.169.254
  ipv6.metadata.301party.com: [::169.254.169.254]
Why not just one name with both A and AAAA records? ...er, and why not fd00:ec2::254? (I now suspect that there's a subjoke here that I'm missing)
bombcar•6mo ago
It can be nice to have an address that is guaranteed to be one or the other.

Can someone explain what this is?

A simple utility to test 301 redirects in your project.

rlk•6mo ago
I found a couple of fun tricks you can do with this (for some definition of "fun" anyway).

Go's http.Redirect function allows non-3xx statuses, and also renders a trivial page with a status message and link:

https://301party.com/451?url=javascript:alert(%27hello%27)

Alas not infinitely recursive but enough to make your browser give up:

https://301party.com/301?url=/301?url=/301?url=/301?url=/301...

[edit to add:] https://301party.com/0 causes a panic

Pyrodogg•6mo ago
I'm so used to getting 451's that the example flew right over my head. First reaction was, "ugh this again [reaches for vpn]".
