Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4736-1 [email protected]

Package : python-django
Version : 2:2.2.28-1~deb11u13 3:3.2.25-0+deb12u4
CVE ID : CVE-2026-15337 CVE-2026-15920
Two issues were discovered in Django, the Python-based web
development framework.
CVE-2026-15337
Avoid a potential denial-of-service vulnerability in the
check_for_language() method in the django.utils.translation
module.
This method was subject to a potential denial-of-service (DoS)
attack when checking many distinct, very long language codes. To
mitigate this vulnerability, language codes longer than 500
characters are now rejected before the cached lookup.
CVE-2026-15920
Prevent a potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attack via
bogus URLField values in the Django admin.
The admin renders URLField values as clickable links on
'changelist' views and read-only fields. This link was hitherto
generated without validating the value as a safe URL, so a stored
value using a potentially dangerous scheme was rendered as a
link. URLField values shown via display_for_field are now
validated using the URLValidator class before a link is rendered
and displayed as plain text if validation fails.
For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
2:2.2.28-1~deb11u13.
For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version
3:3.2.25-0+deb12u4.
We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.
