Django 2.2.27 release notes¶
February 1, 2022
Django 2.2.27 fixes two security issues with severity “medium” in 2.2.26.
CVE-2022-22818: Possible XSS via {% debug %}
template tag¶
The {% debug %}
template tag didn’t properly encode the current context,
posing an XSS attack vector.
In order to avoid this vulnerability, {% debug %}
no longer outputs
information when the DEBUG
setting is False
, and it ensures all context
variables are correctly escaped when the DEBUG
setting is True
.
CVE-2022-23833: Denial-of-service possibility in file uploads¶
Passing certain inputs to multipart forms could result in an infinite loop when parsing files.
