Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from improper validation of the 'callerUrl' parameter in the controlled vocabulary servlet. The commit diff shows the patch added a context path check to prevent external redirects. The doDSGet() method was vulnerable because it directly used the unvalidated 'callerUrl' parameter for redirection. This matches the CWE-601 description of open redirects through unvalidated redirect parameters.
