Ah, I see what you're getting at. It'd be better if the URL for get_upload_url (I think that's what the API was called) could be calculated client side. At the moment, you're probably still more at risk of downloading a malicious library from PyPi or npm but this is sure to turn up in a CTF at some point - even curl is technically vulnerable. Have you talked to anyone from Backblaze about this?

Yes, client-side URL calculation and/or a whitelist of acceptable URLs would be a significant improvement. Thankfully command-line curl won't follow redirects unless you pass it a special flag, though if you do need it to follow redirects, I'm not sure what the best way is to restrict the range of redirects that it will follow. This issue was part of a broader coordinated disclosure and was only published today. I've gotten in touch with B2 support & I'm hoping my support ticket will make it to the correct people.
