The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6987-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain inputs. An attacker could possibly use this     issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-45230)

    It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain email sending failures. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to enumerate user emails by issuing password reset requests and observing the     outcomes. (CVE-2024-45231)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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

    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-2024:1101 advisory.

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

    CVE-2024-53907:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.1 before 5.1.4, 5.0 before 5.0.10, and 4.2 before 4.2.17. Direct usage     of the django.db.models.fields.json.HasKey lookup, when an Oracle database is used, is subject to SQL     injection if untrusted data is used as an lhs value. (Applications that use the jsonfield.has_key lookup     via __ are unaffected.)

    CVE-2024-53908:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.1 before 5.1.4, 5.0 before 5.0.10, and 4.2 before 4.2.17. The     strip_tags() method and striptags template filter are subject to a potential denial-of-service attack via     certain inputs containing large sequences of nested incomplete HTML entities.

    CVE-2024-45230:
    An issue was discovered in Django 5.1 before 5.1.1, 5.0 before 5.0.9, and 4.2 before 4.2.16. 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-2024-45231:
    An issue was discovered in Django v5.1.1, v5.0.9, and v4.2.16. The     django.contrib.auth.forms.PasswordResetForm class, when used in a view implementing password reset flows,     allows remote attackers to enumerate user e-mail addresses by sending password reset requests and     observing the outcome (only when e-mail sending is consistently failing).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

The remote Debian 12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-6136 advisory.

    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.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

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

The detected version of the Django Python package, Django, is 4.2.x prior to 4.2.16, 5.0.x prior to 5.0.9 or 5.1.x prior to 5.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as disclosed in Django's September 3rd 2024 security advisory:

  - urlize and urlizetrunc were subject to a potential denial-of-service attack via very large inputs with a   specific sequence of characters. (CVE-2024-45230)  
  - 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.
  (CVE-2024-45231)

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

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 Django v5.1.1, v5.0.9, and v4.2.16. The     django.contrib.auth.forms.PasswordResetForm class, when used in a view implementing password reset flows,     allows remote attackers to enumerate user e-mail addresses by sending password reset requests and     observing the outcome (only when e-mail sending is consistently failing). (CVE-2024-45231)

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

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202509-03 (Django: Multiple Vulnerabilities)
