The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-4458 advisory.

    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------     Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4458-1                debian-lts@lists.debian.org     https://www.debian.org/lts/security/                           Chris Lamb     January 28, 2026                              https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

    Package        : python-django     Version        : 2:2.2.28-1~deb11u11     CVE IDs        : CVE-2024-39614 CVE-2024-45231 CVE-2024-42005 CVE-2024-41991 CVE-2024-39329 CVE-2024-41989     CVE-2024-39330 CVE-2025-6069

    Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Django, the Python-based     web development framework:

    - - CVE-2024-39614: Fix a potential denial-of-service in       django.utils.translation.get_supported_language_variant. This       method was subject to a potential DoS attack when used with very       long strings containing specific characters. To mitigate this       vulnerability, the language code provided to       get_supported_language_variant is now parsed up to a maximum length       of 500 characters.

    - - CVE-2024-45231: Potential user email enumeration via response       status on password reset. Due to unhandled email sending failures,       the django.contrib.auth.forms.PasswordResetForm class allowed       remote attackers to enumerate user emails by issuing password reset       requests and observing the outcomes. To mitigate this risk,       exceptions occurring during password reset email sending are now       handled and logged using the django.contrib.auth logger.

    - - CVE-2024-42005: Potential SQL injection in QuerySet.values() and       values_list(). QuerySet.values() and values_list() methods on       models with a JSONField are subject to SQL injection in column       aliases via a crafted JSON object key as a passed *arg.

    - - CVE-2024-41991: Potential denial-of-service vulnerability in       django.utils.html.urlize() and AdminURLFieldWidget. The urlize and       urlizetrunc template filters, and the AdminURLFieldWidget widget,       are subject to a potential denial-of-service attack via certain       inputs with a very large number of Unicode characters.

    - - CVE-2024-39329: Avoid a username enumeration vulnerability through       timing difference for users with unusable password. The       authenticate method of django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend       method allowed remote attackers to enumerate users via a timing       attack involving login requests for users with unusable passwords.

    - - CVE-2024-41989: Memory exhaustion in django.utils.numberformat. The       floatformat template filter is subject to significant memory       consumption when given a string representation of a number in       scientific notation with a large exponent.

    - - CVE-2024-39330: Address a potential directory-traversal in       django.core.files.storage.Storage.save. Derived classes of this       method's base class which override generate_filename without       replicating the file path validations existing in the parent class       allowed for potential directory-traversal via certain inputs when       calling save(). Built-in Storage sub-classes were not affected by       this vulnerability.

    In addition, the fix for CVE-2025-6069 in the python3.9 source     package (released as part of a suite of updates in DLA 4445-1) that     modified the html.parser.HTMLParser class in such a way that changed     the behaviour of Django's strip_tags() method in some edge cases that     were tested by Django's testsuite. As a result of this regression,     update the testsuite for the new expected results.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     2:2.2.28-1~deb11u11.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2024:0574 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2024-42005:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.0 before 5.0.8 and 4.2 before 4.2.15. QuerySet.values() and     values_list() methods on models with a JSONField are subject to SQL injection in column aliases via a     crafted JSON object key as a passed *arg.

    CVE-2024-41991:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.0 before 5.0.8 and 4.2 before 4.2.15. The urlize and urlizetrunc     template filters, and the AdminURLFieldWidget widget, are subject to a potential denial-of-service attack     via certain inputs with a very large number of Unicode characters.

    CVE-2024-41990:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.0 before 5.0.8 and 4.2 before 4.2.15. The urlize() and urlizetrunc()     template filters are subject to a potential denial-of-service attack via very large inputs with a specific     sequence of characters.

    CVE-2024-41989:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.0 before 5.0.8 and 4.2 before 4.2.15. The floatformat template filter     is subject to significant memory consumption when given a string representation of a number in scientific     notation with a large exponent.

    CVE-2024-39614:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.0 before 5.0.7 and 4.2 before 4.2.14. get_supported_language_variant()     was subject to a potential denial-of-service attack when used with very long strings containing specific     characters.

    CVE-2024-39330:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.0 before 5.0.7 and 4.2 before 4.2.14. Derived classes of the     django.core.files.storage.Storage base class, when they override generate_filename() without replicating     the file-path validations from the parent class, potentially allow directory traversal via certain inputs     during a save() call. (Built-in Storage sub-classes are unaffected.)

    CVE-2024-39329:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.0 before 5.0.7 and 4.2 before 4.2.14. The     django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend.authenticate() method allows remote attackers to enumerate users     via a timing attack involving login requests for users with an unusable password.

    CVE-2024-38875:
    An issue was discovered in Django 4.2 before 4.2.14 and 5.0 before 5.0.7. urlize and urlizetrunc were     subject to a potential denial of service attack via certain inputs with a very large number of brackets.

    CVE-2022-28347:
    A SQL injection issue was discovered in QuerySet.explain() in Django 2.2 before 2.2.28, 3.2 before 3.2.13,     and 4.0 before 4.0.4. This occurs by passing a crafted dictionary (with dictionary expansion) as the
    **options argument, and placing the injection payload in an option name.

    CVE-2022-28346:
    An issue was discovered in Django 2.2 before 2.2.28, 3.2 before 3.2.13, and 4.0 before 4.0.4.
    QuerySet.annotate(), aggregate(), and extra() methods are subject to SQL injection in column aliases via a     crafted dictionary (with dictionary expansion) as the passed **kwargs.

    CVE-2021-33203:
    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-2021-32052:
    In Django 2.2 before 2.2.22, 3.1 before 3.1.10, and 3.2 before 3.2.2 (with Python 3.9.5+), URLValidator     does not prohibit newlines and tabs (unless the URLField form field is used). If an application uses     values with newlines in an HTTP response, header injection can occur. Django itself is unaffected because     HttpResponse prohibits newlines in HTTP headers.

    Multiple security issues were found in Django, a Python web development     framework, which could result in denial of service, information     disclosure, directory traversal or SQL injection.

    For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed     in version 3:3.2.25-0+deb12u1. python-django-storages also needed to be     updated to ensure ongoing compatibility (1.13.2-1+deb12u1).

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.

    For the detailed security status of python-django please refer to     its security tracker page at:
