I'm really having a tough time seeing the threat here. And I can see
beneficial uses of this in a case where a secondary UI may be linking to
workflows in Horizon.

Title:
  Prevent open redirects as a result of workflow action

Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
  In Progress
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  For example:
  /admin/flavors/create/?next=http://www.foobar.com/

  If a user is tricked into clicking that link, the flavor create
  workflow will be shown, but the redirect on form post will
  unexpectedly take the user to another site.

  Prevent this by checking that the next_url in WorkflowView.post is
  same origin.
