critical Nessus Plugin ID 159630

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5373-1 advisory.

 It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain certain column aliases in the QuerySet.annotate(), aggregate(), and extra() methods. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform an SQL injection attack. (CVE-2022-28346)

 It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain option names in the QuerySet.explain() method. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform an SQL injection attack. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 21.10. (CVE-2022-28347)

 It was discovered that the Django URLValidator function incorrectly handled newlines and tabs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a header injection attack. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2021-32052)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected python-django, python-django-common and / or python3-django packages.
