Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-47273)

CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in package_index.py. A remote attacker can trick the victim into installing a specially crafted script and overwrite arbitrary files on the system, leading to code execution.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-48432)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform log injection attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the django.utils.log.log_response() function. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and inject arbitrary entries into log files.
