An update that solves four vulnerabilities and has one
errata is now available. It includes one version update.
Description:
python-django has been updated to version 1.5.12 to fix four security
issues:
* CVE-2015-0219: Django before 1.4.18, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.7.x
before 1.7.3 allowed remote attackers to spoof WSGI headers by using
an _ (underscore) character instead of a - (dash) character in an
HTTP header, as demonstrated by an X-Auth_User header (bnc#913053).
* CVE-2015-0220: The django.util.http.is_safe_url function in Django
before 1.4.18, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.7.x before 1.7.3 did not
properly handle leading whitespaces, which allowed remote attackers
to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted URL,
related to redirect URLs, as demonstrated by a "\njavascript:" URL
(bnc#913054).
* CVE-2015-0221: The django.views.static.serve view in Django before
1.4.18, 1.6.x before 1.6.10, and 1.7.x before 1.7.3 read files an
entire line at a time, which allowed remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (memory consumption) via a long line in a file
(bnc#913056).
* CVE-2015-0222: ModelMultipleChoiceField in Django 1.6.x before
1.6.10 and 1.7.x before 1.7.3, when show_hidden_initial is set to
True, allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service by
submitting duplicate values, which triggered a large number of SQL
queries (bnc#913055).
These non-security issues have been fixed:
* Method check_for_test_cookie is deprecated (bnc#914706)
* Fixed a regression with dynamically generated inlines and allowed
field references in the admin
* Allowed related many-to-many fields to be referenced in the admin
* Allowed inline and hidden references to admin fields
Security Issues:
* CVE-2015-0222
