jinja2@3.0.0rc1 vulnerabilities

Jinja2 is a template engine written in pure Python. It provides a Django inspired non-XML syntax but supports inline expressions and an optional sandboxed environment.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) through the xmlattr filter. An attacker can manipulate the output of web pages by injecting additional attributes into elements, potentially leading to unauthorized actions or information disclosure.

Note: This vulnerability derives from an improper fix of CVE-2024-22195, which only addressed spaces but not other characters.

Upgrade Jinja2 to version 3.1.4 or higher.

Jinja2 is a template engine written in pure Python. It provides a Django inspired non-XML syntax but supports inline expressions and an optional sandboxed environment.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) via the xmlattr filter, when using keys containing spaces in an application accepts keys as user input. An attacker can inject arbitrary HTML attributes into the rendered HTML template, bypassing the auto-escaping mechanism, which may lead to the execution of untrusted scripts in the context of the user's browser session.

Note Accepting keys as user input is not common or a particularly intended use case of the xmlattr filter, and an application doing so should already be verifying what keys are provided regardless of this fix.

Upgrade Jinja2 to version 3.1.3 or higher.
