I’d like to point out the lame work of the cPanel Security Team on these vulnerabilities. Usually when I report a vulnerability, I get some kind of interaction with the vendor developers and/or the security team, most of the times I enjoy working with the people involved. In this case, the cPanel Security Team were unresponsive. Eventually I was forced to release the security advisory even though one of the vulnerabilities (the Open Redirection vulnerability) is still unpatched.
