CVE-2019-3850: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site (Open Redirect)

March 26, 2019 (updated October 9, 2019)

Links within assignment submission comments would open directly (in the same window). Although links themselves may be valid, opening within the same window and without the no-referrer header policy made them more susceptible to exploits.
