Package : python-django Version : 1:1.11.29-1+deb10u4 CVE IDs : CVE-2021-45452 CVE-2022-22818 CVE-2022-23833 Debian Bugs : 1003113 1004752

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

* CVE-2021-45452: Storage.save allowed directory traversal if crafted filenames were passed directlyto it.

* CVE-2022-22818: The {% debug %} template tag did not properly encode the current context. This may lead to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

* CVE-2022-23833: The HTTP MultiPartParser had a issue whereby certain inputs to multipart forms could result in an infinite loop when parsing uploaded files.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1:1.11.29-1+deb10u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.
