MODERATE

Header injection possible in Django

Published June 9, 2021Updated September 20, 2024Source: osv

Details

In Django 2.2 before 2.2.22, 3.1 before 3.1.10, and 3.2 before 3.2.2 (with Python 3.9.5+), URLValidator does not prohibit newlines and tabs (unless the URLField form field is used). If an application uses values with newlines in an HTTP response, header injection can occur. Django itself is unaffected because HttpResponse prohibits newlines in HTTP headers.

Remediation

Upgrade to the fixed version using your package manager.

pip
Update django to 2.2.22 or later
pip install "django>=2.2.22"
pip
Update django to 3.2.2 or later
pip install "django>=3.2.2"
pip
Update django to 3.1.10 or later
pip install "django>=3.1.10"

After upgrading, run your dependency scanner again to confirm the vulnerability is resolved.
