From an Innocent Client-Side Path Traversal to Account Takeover
A client-side path traversal in a single-page app's fetch URL lets an attacker steer the request elsewhere on the API host, then chain it to an OAuth error redirect registered with an attacker-controlled redirect_uri, so the browser carries custom auth headers such as X-Token to the attacker's origin and turns a minor traversal into account takeover.
