Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.
1) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-13473)
CWE-ID: CWE-208 - Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/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 gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to timing difference in the mod_wsgi authentication handler within the django.contrib.auth.handlers.modwsgi.check_password() function for authentication via mod_wsgi. A remote attacker can enumerate existing usernames.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-14550)
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:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when using ASGIRequest. A remote attacker can send multiple requests with duplicated HTTP headers to the application, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-1207)
CWE-ID: CWE-89 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data passed as a band index to raster lookups on GIS fields (only implemented on PostGIS). A remote user can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.
4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-1285)
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:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources within the django.utils.text.Truncator.chars() and Truncator.words() methods (with html=True) and truncatechars_html and truncatewords_html template filters. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-1287)
CWE-ID: CWE-89 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data passed to QuerySet methods annotate(), aggregate(), extra(), values(), values_list(), and alias().. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.
6) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-1312)
CWE-ID: CWE-89 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the QuerySet.order_by() method. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.
