Overview
Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key through forged model formset submissions. An attacker can delete objects outside the formset’s limiting queryset by submitting POST data that supplies an editable primary key for a newly constructed instance and marks it for deletion. This lets an authenticated user with permission to submit the formset remove rows they are not authorized to target, while models with the default AutoField primary key are not affected.
