NewCVE-2026-61598 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade djust to version 1.0.7 or higher.
Overview
djust is a Phoenix LiveView-style reactive components for Django with Rust-powered performance. Real-time UI updates over WebSocket, no JavaScript build step required.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes in the update_model process. An attacker can manipulate sensitive view attributes by sending crafted events with arbitrary field names and values over the WebSocket interface. This can result in unauthorized modification of business logic or authorization state, especially when public view attributes are used to store such information. Type coercion of values to match attribute types further facilitates exploitation.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by explicitly setting allowed_model_fields on every view using dj-model or subclassing LiveView to the minimal list of bindable fields, and by avoiding storage of authorization or ownership state in public view attributes that are accessible alongside dj-model bindings.
