On November 13th, 2014, a bug bounty hunter, called Yassine Aboukir, reported an open redirect vulnerability directly to the Facebook security team. He found two URLs vulnerable to redirections:
https://www.facebook.com/ads/manage/log/?uri=xxxxx&event=view_power_editor&ad_account_id=1 https://www.facebook.com/browsegroups/addcover/log/?groupid=1&groupuri=xxxxx
As he mentioned in the report, he tried common techniques to exploit the vulnerabilities, but it was not possible due to the controls implemented by Facebook:
