An example attack scenario could be that an attacker will redirect many

It sounds like the net impact of this vulnerability is that an
attacker can steal cookies for a site the user isn't allowed to visit
anyway.  In other words, there aren't going to be any interesting
cookies to steal.  Is there more to this attack scenario?
