Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Spoofing attack (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-3498)

CWE-ID: CWE-451 - User Interface (UI) Misrepresentation of Critical Information (Clickjacking, spoofing)

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to conduct spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can craft a malicious URL that can make spoofed content appear on the default page generated by the django.views.defaults.page_not_found() view.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-6975)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper memory operations that exist when the django.utils.numberformat.format() function receives a decimal with a large number of digits or a large component. A remote attacker can send a request that submits malicious input, consume excessive amounts of memory resources, resulting in a DoS condition.
