Description

This security bulletin contains information about 12 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-42005)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in QuerySet.values() and values_list() functions. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41991)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in django.utils.html.urlize() and AdminURLFieldWidget. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41990)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in django.utils.html.urlize() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33663)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to algorithm confusion with OpenSSH ECDSA keys and other key formats. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack.


5) Improper Handling of Case Sensitivity (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-32879)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to default case-insensitive collation in MySQL or MariaDB databases. A remote user can bypass authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the application.


6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41989)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources in django.utils.numberformat.floatformat() function. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39614)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in django.utils.translation.get_supported_language_variant() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


8) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39330)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in django.core.files.storage.Storage.save() function. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.


9) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39329)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application in the django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend.authenticate() method. A remote attacker can enumerate users via a timing attack involving login requests for users with an unusable password.


10) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38875)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in django.utils.html.urlize() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


11) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7246)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of HTTP/2 headers. A remote attacker can send a series of HTTP/2 requests to the application and gain access to sensitive information or perform spoofing attack.


12) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-5569)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted zip file to the application, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
