Description:
if you go directly to this page
http://forge1.mysql.com/people/login.php
(the login page), enter your information, click login.
you get a blank page.

How to repeat:
1- go here
http://forge1.mysql.com/people/login.php
2- login 
3- There you are, blank page. (I hope ;-) )

Suggested fix:
If you are using the referral page for the redirect, have a default redirect in case this value is empty (I wonder if some browsers do not send the referral url as "security feature")

Thank you for a bug report. Verified just as described.

This was fixed in the patch regarding bug#34956

Added default value for non-referring or attack-vector cleaned URLs

Patch in r369-70
