Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Django, a high-level Python web development framework. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  • CVE-2016-9013 Marti Raudsepp reported that a user with a hard-coded password is created when running tests with an Oracle database.

  • CVE-2016-9014 Aymeric Augustin discovered that Django does not properly validate the Host header against settings.ALLOWED_HOSTS when the debug setting is enabled. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to perform DNS rebinding attacks.

  • CVE-2017-7233 It was discovered that is_safe_url() does not properly handle certain numeric URLs as safe. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to perform XSS attacks or to use a Django server as an open redirect.

  • CVE-2017-7234 Phithon from Chaitin Tech discovered an open redirect vulnerability in the django.views.static.serve() view.
    Note that this view is not intended for production use.
