The severity of the issue reported at Security Focus is low.

I am sure it is being validated and if necessary addressed by the security task force. As usual to find out more about our policy you may visit http://security.dotnetnuke.com.

Do you know the truth when you hear it?

Those who manage their own web servers, should install the URLscan filter, it should be able to remove the malformed part of the URL.

4.8.3 is breaking many of my sites.

Im assuming that status, error, etc messages are being placed  into the url by MANY custom modules..

"Redirect URI cannot contain newline characters."

Brian, thats very strange. There were only 4 changes for 4.8.3 and none involved changes to code that read paths or redirect (there were changes in install.aspx, installwizard.aspx, some filesystemutils stuff and code to delete certain files). Please check your database to see if any new characters have been injected, i know of some users who suffered sql injection attacks (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/Forums/tabid/795/forumid/118/threadid/227881/scope/posts/Default.aspx) via 3rd party modules, perhaps that's at the root of your problem.

Brian, I checked with sourceforge statistics (http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/detail.php?group_id=77052&ugn=dnn&type=prdownload&mode=alltime&package_id=77939&release_id=602419) and theres been 16000+ downloads of 4.8.3, and I can't find anyone else reporting your issue, so it looks like it's something particular to your setup. I'd recommend checking your database and any common components such as httphandlers, url rewriters etc.
