Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Input validation directly checks and rejects untrusted redirect targets before they are used in a response.

Information flow enforcement can restrict redirects to only approved/trusted destinations, stopping untrusted user-supplied URLs from being followed.
