CVE-2015-0219 Open this link in a new tabOverview
django
is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to WSGI header spoofing. A malicious user could exploit this vulnerability by using an _
character instead of a -
in an HTTP header. In the WSGI environ, the X-Auth-User
and the X-Auth_User
headers are both converted to HTTP_X_Auth_User
, allowing the attacker to bypass the protection.
