Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published Jun 5, 2025 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Jun 6, 2025

Package

pip Django (pip)

Affected versions

>= 5.2, < 5.2.2
>= 5.0a1, < 5.1.10
< 4.2.22

Description

An issue was discovered in Django 5.2 before 5.2.2, 5.1 before 5.1.10, and 4.2 before 4.2.22. Internal HTTP response logging does not escape request.path, which allows remote attackers to potentially manipulate log output via crafted URLs. This may lead to log injection or forgery when logs are viewed in terminals or processed by external systems.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
