In Django 2.2 before 2.2.20, 3.0 before 3.0.14, and 3.1 before 3.1.8, MultiPartParser allowed directory traversal via uploaded files with suitably crafted file names. Built-in upload handlers were not affected by this vulnerability.

The remote Debian 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3744 advisory.

  - In Django 2.2 before 2.2.20, 3.0 before 3.0.14, and 3.1 before 3.1.8, MultiPartParser allowed directory     traversal via uploaded files with suitably crafted file names. Built-in upload handlers were not affected     by this vulnerability. (CVE-2021-28658)

  - In Django 2.2 before 2.2.21, 3.1 before 3.1.9, and 3.2 before 3.2.1, MultiPartParser, UploadedFile, and     FieldFile allowed directory traversal via uploaded files with suitably crafted file names.
    (CVE-2021-31542)

  - Django before 2.2.24, 3.x before 3.1.12, and 3.2.x before 3.2.4 has a potential directory traversal via     django.contrib.admindocs. Staff members could use the TemplateDetailView view to check the existence of     arbitrary files. Additionally, if (and only if) the default admindocs templates have been customized by     application developers to also show file contents, then not only the existence but also the file contents     would have been exposed. In other words, there is directory traversal outside of the template root     directories. (CVE-2021-33203)

  - In Django 2.2 before 2.2.24, 3.x before 3.1.12, and 3.2 before 3.2.4, URLValidator, validate_ipv4_address,     and validate_ipv46_address do not prohibit leading zero characters in octal literals. This may allow a     bypass of access control that is based on IP addresses. (validate_ipv4_address and validate_ipv46_address     are unaffected with Python 3.9.5+..) . (CVE-2021-33571)

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

  - In Twisted Web through 19.10.0, there was an HTTP request splitting vulnerability. When presented with two     content-length headers, it ignored the first header. When the second content-length value was set to zero,     the request body was interpreted as a pipelined request. (CVE-2020-10108)

  - In Twisted Web through 19.10.0, there was an HTTP request splitting vulnerability. When presented with a     content-length and a chunked encoding header, the content-length took precedence and the remainder of the     request body was interpreted as a pipelined request. (CVE-2020-10109)

  - A XSS vulnerability was discovered in python-lxml's clean module. The module's parser didn't properly     imitate browsers, which caused different behaviors between the sanitizer and the user's page. A remote     attacker could exploit this flaw to run arbitrary HTML/JS code. (CVE-2020-27783)

  - In PyYAML before 5.1, the yaml.load() API could execute arbitrary code if used with untrusted data. The     load() function has been deprecated in version 5.1 and the 'UnsafeLoader' has been introduced for backward     compatibility with the function. (CVE-2017-18342)

  - In Django 2.2 before 2.2.25, 3.1 before 3.1.14, and 3.2 before 3.2.10, HTTP requests for URLs with     trailing newlines could bypass upstream access control based on URL paths. (CVE-2021-44420)

  - In Django 2.2 before 2.2.21, 3.1 before 3.1.9, and 3.2 before 3.2.1, MultiPartParser, UploadedFile, and     FieldFile allowed directory traversal via uploaded files with suitably crafted file names.

  - lxml is a library for processing XML and HTML in the Python language. Prior to version 4.6.5, the HTML     Cleaner in lxml.html lets certain crafted script content pass through, as well as script content in SVG     files embedded using data URIs. Users that employ the HTML cleaner in a security relevant context should     upgrade to lxml 4.6.5 to receive a patch. There are no known workarounds available. (CVE-2021-43818)

  - An XSS vulnerability was discovered in python-lxml's clean module versions before 4.6.3. When disabling     the safe_attrs_only and forms arguments, the Cleaner class does not remove the formaction attribute     allowing for JS to bypass the sanitizer. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to run arbitrary JS     code on users who interact with incorrectly sanitized HTML. This issue is patched in lxml 4.6.3.

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

It was discovered that there was a potential directory traversal issue in Django, a Python-based web development framework.

The vulnerability could have been exploited by maliciously crafted filenames. However, the upload handlers built into Django itself were not affected.

For Debian 9 'Stretch', this problem has been fixed in version 1:1.10.7-2+deb9u12.

We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.
