Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Open Redirect: Inadequate validation of the `return_url` parameter allowed arbitrary redirection to untrusted destinations because the validation scheme trusted generic HTTP/HTTPS schemes without checking the destination host.

DOM-based XSS: Assigning unvalidated user input directly to browser location APIs (`location.href`) allowed execution of malicious javascript: schemes in the victim's browser context.
