    Package        : python-django     Version        : 1:1.11.29-1+deb10u2     CVE IDs        : CVE-2020-24583 CVE-2020-24584 CVE-2021-3281                      CVE-2021-23336 CVE-2022-34265     Debian Bugs    : 969367 981562 983090 1014541

    Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Django, a popular     Python-based web development framework:

     * CVE-2020-24583: Fix incorrect permissions on intermediate-level        directories on Python 3.7+. FILE_UPLOAD_DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS mode        was not applied to intermediate-level directories created in the        process of uploading files and to intermediate-level collected        static directories when using the collectstatic management        command. You should review and manually fix permissions on        existing intermediate-level directories.

     * CVE-2020-24584: Correct permission escalation vulnerability in        intermediate-level directories of the file system cache. On Python        3.7 and above, the intermediate-level directories of the file        system cache had the system's standard umask rather than 0o077 (no        group or others permissions).

     * CVE-2021-3281: Fix a potential directory-traversal exploit via        archive.extract(). The django.utils.archive.extract() function,        used by startapp --template and startproject --template, allowed        directory traversal via an archive with absolute paths or relative        paths with dot segments.

     * CVE-2021-23336: Prevent a web cache poisoning attack via parameter        cloaking. Django contains a copy of urllib.parse.parse_qsl()        which was added to backport some security fixes. A further        security fix has been issued recently such that parse_qsl() no        longer allows using ; as a query parameter separator by default.

     * CVE-2022-34265: The Trunc() and Extract() database functions were        subject to a potential SQL injection attach if untrusted data was        used as a value for the kind or lookup_name parameters.
       Applications that constrain the choice to a known safe list were        unaffected.

    For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version     1:1.11.29-1+deb10u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.

    For the detailed security status of python-django please refer to     its security tracker page at:
