An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.3, 5.2 before 5.2.12, and 4.2 before 4.2.29. Race condition in file-system storage and file-based cache backends in Django allows an attacker to cause file system objects to be created with incorrect permissions via concurrent requests, where one thread's temporary `umask` change affects other threads in multi-threaded environments. Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to thank Tarek Nakkouch for reporting this issue.

The remote openSUSE 16 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the openSUSE- SU-2026:20373-1 advisory.

    Changes in python-Django:

    - CVE-2026-25674: Fixed race condition which can lead to potential incorrect permissions on newly created     file system objects (bsc#1259142)

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.3, 5.2 before 5.2.12, and 4.2 before 4.2.29.
    `URLField.to_python()` in Django calls `urllib.parse.urlsplit()`, which performs NFKC normalization on
    Windows that is disproportionately slow for certain Unicode characters, allowing a remote attacker to
    cause denial of service via large URL inputs containing these characters. Earlier, unsupported Django
    series (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to
    thank Seokchan Yoon for reporting this issue. (CVE-2026-25673)

  - An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.3, 5.2 before 5.2.12, and 4.2 before 4.2.29. Race condition in
    file-system storage and file-based cache backends in Django allows an attacker to cause file system
    objects to be created with incorrect permissions via concurrent requests, where one thread's temporary
    `umask` change affects other threads in multi-threaded environments. Earlier, unsupported Django series
    (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to thank
    Tarek Nakkouch for reporting this issue. (CVE-2026-25674)

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / openSUSE 15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:0821-1 advisory.

    This update for python-Django fixes the following issue:

    - CVE-2026-25674: race condition can lead to potential incorrect permissions on newly created file system     objects       (bsc#1259142).

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.3, 5.2 before 5.2.12, and 4.2 before 4.2.29. Race condition in     file-system storage and file-based cache backends in Django allows an attacker to cause file system     objects to be created with incorrect permissions via concurrent requests, where one thread's temporary     `umask` change affects other threads in multi-threaded environments.

(CVE-2026-25674)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The detected version of the Django Python package, is 4.2.x prior to 4.2.29, 5.2.x prior to 5.2.12, or 6.0.x prior to 6.0.3. It is, therefore, affected by a race condition vulnerability as referenced by security release advisory:

  - An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.3, 5.2 before 5.2.12, and 4.2 before 4.2.29.
