How it was found
The bug mentioned in #23386 is not yet correctly patched I believe.
See, if a user sets his/her profile's website link to a similar page as mentioned in #23386. I mean a page that can manipulate the window.opener property would be able to accomplish similar results as in #23386
Proof-of-Concept:
- Login to HackerOne
- Navigate to https://hackerone.com/settings/profile/edit
- Set Website to https://demo.prakharprasad.com/ga.html
- Once someone visits this link from a profile page (eg. https://hackerone.com/<username->), his opener HackerOne window will be hijacked.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks, Prakhar Prasad
