However, this platform was recently found to have a major vulnerability identified as CVE-2019-3912. This vulnerability is an open redirect vulnerability, which allows an attacker to redirect a user to any external malicious website without their consent. An unauthenticated remote attacker can easily exploit this vulnerability by using the returnURL parameter in the platform’s __r1 URL, which is usually intended to redirect users back to the original page after a successful login. 

When exploited, this vulnerability can lead to various malicious activities such as phishing attacks, credential theft, and unauthorized access to sensitive data. An attacker can easily manipulate the redirected URL and craft a convincing phishing page that looks similar to the original site, tricking users into entering their login credentials or providing other sensitive information.
