Facebook URL Redirection Vulnerability


Friends, Recently I found a "Redirection Vulnerability" inside Facebook, However facebook refused to accept it as according to them the vulnerability targets very few people. This is what they replied:

Hi Rafay,

This endpoint contains a specialized parameter that limits its usage to a small number of computers and users, preventing it from being used as a completely open redirect. For more detailed background information, please see this note by one of the engineers on the product: http://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-security/link-shim-protecting-the-people-who-use-facebook-from-malicious-urls/10150492832835766
