Python Library Django 5.2.x < 5.2.19 / 6.0.x < 6.0.10 / 6.1.x < 6.1.3 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 377036

Synopsis

A Python library installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The detected version of the Django Python package is 5.2.x prior to 5.2.19, or 6.0.x prior to 6.0.10, or 6.1.x prior to 6.1.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

- django.contrib.gis.gdal.OGRGeometry does not restrict external coordinate reference system definitions in GeoJSON input, which allows remote attackers to cause server-side requests to attacker-selected destinations via crafted crs members. (CVE-2026-111362)

- django.contrib.gis.gdal.SpatialReference, and the related transform() methods and srs/srid setters, do not restrict GDAL's file and network access when parsing string input, which allows attackers to trigger server-side requests or local file reads via crafted spatial reference strings. (CVE-2026-114582)

- django.contrib.gis.forms.widgets.BaseGeometryWidget.deserialize(), used by django.contrib.gis.forms.GeometryField, does not escape invalid submitted values before logging them, which allows remote attackers to inject or forge log entries via a crafted geometry value. (CVE-2026-111211)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Django version 5.2.19, 6.0.10, 6.1.3 or later.
