CVE-ID: CVE-2019-19118

CWE-ID: CWE-269 - Improper Privilege Management

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to escalate privileges within the application.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect privilege management when processing the save() method in "/django/contrib/admin/options.py". A remote authenticated user can assign elevated privileges to his or her account by manipulating form elements.

7) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU23667

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 8.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-19844

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to hijack another user account.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when processing email addresses passed via the password reset form. A remote attacker with knowledge of a valid email address can use a specially crafted email that after Unicode transformation will be treated as the victim's email address and reset password for the victim's account to the attacker provided email address.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.
dev-python/django to version: 2.2.11

8) SQL injection

EUVDB-ID: #VU24846

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7471

CWE-ID: CWE-89 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data if untrusted data is used as a StringAgg delimiter (e.g., in Django applications that offer downloads of data as a series of rows with a user-specified column delimiter). By passing a suitably crafted delimiter to a contrib.postgres.aggregates.StringAgg instance, it was possible to break escaping and inject malicious SQL in Django 1.11 before 1.11.28, 2.2 before 2.2.10, and 3.0 before 3.0.3. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-9402

CWE-ID: CWE-89 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data if untrusted data is used as a tolerance parameter in GIS functions and aggregates on Oracle. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.
