# Testing for Open Redirect Vulnerabilities
## When to Use
- When testing login/logout flows that redirect users to specified URLs
- During assessment of OAuth authorization endpoints with redirect_uri parameters
- When auditing applications with URL parameters (next, url, redirect, return, goto, target)
- During phishing simulation to chain open redirects with credential harvesting
- When testing SSO implementations for redirect validation weaknesses
## Critical: Payload Matrix and Bypasses (checklist-derived)
### Parameters to test (fuzz every one)
```
url, redirect, redir, next, target, return, rurl, dest, destination,
