NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-django package and not the python-django package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

Django 1.9.x before 1.9.2, when ModelAdmin.save_as is set to True, allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and create ModelAdmin objects via the "Save as New" option when editing objects and leveraging the "change" permission.
