How to fix?

Upgrade Django to version 5.2.19, 6.0.10, 6.1.3 or higher.

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 Improper Output Neutralization for Logs in the deserialize method of BaseGeometryWidget in django/contrib/gis/forms/widgets.py. An attacker can write unescaped control characters such as newlines or ANSI escape sequences into application logs by submitting an invalid value to a GeometryField, which is logged verbatim when geometry construction fails. The impact depends on how those logs are later processed or viewed, for example in a terminal or an external log aggregator.
