-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:276 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : python-django Date : October 13, 2009 Affected: 2009.0, 2009.1, Enterprise Server 5.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in python-django: The Admin media handler in core/servers/basehttp.py in Django 1.0 and 0.96 does not properly map URL requests to expected static media files, which allows remote attackers to conduct directory traversal attacks and read arbitrary files via a crafted URL (CVE-2009-2659). Algorithmic complexity vulnerability in the forms library in Django 1.0 before 1.0.4 and 1.1 before 1.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted (1) EmailField (email address) or (2) URLField (URL) that triggers a large amount of backtracking in a regular expression (CVE-2009-3695). The versions of Django shipping with Mandriva Linux have been updated to the latest patched version that include the fix for this issue. In addition, they provide other bug fixes. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-2659 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-3695 http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2009/jul/28/security/ http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2009/oct/09/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2009.0: eeb3f3a8fdbf4ae7e973c5b0ab95aee8 2009.0/i586/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.0.noarch.rpm bd7dc74abdc388afe2743b180f8ae5a1 2009.0/SRPMS/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.0.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2009.0/X86_64: 9d5f9d82a19922ae82a33d60382f045f 2009.0/x86_64/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.0.noarch.rpm bd7dc74abdc388afe2743b180f8ae5a1 2009.0/SRPMS/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.0.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2009.1: 0027cec9a30e25f38fdb2fa68da6cf58 2009.1/i586/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.1.noarch.rpm de002eb7492111f1ac473fd91de49165 2009.1/SRPMS/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2009.1/X86_64: 1d68b5b742e4618094cf651c95322b82 2009.1/x86_64/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.1.noarch.rpm de002eb7492111f1ac473fd91de49165 2009.1/SRPMS/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdv2009.1.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5: 4f81003d7801b53640dc16939c510b0a mes5/i586/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdvmes5.noarch.rpm 06d01833a4447328cf6ac6937cc1cc8a mes5/SRPMS/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdvmes5.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64: a0bb40c44b9d496aff726c527ecdce05 mes5/x86_64/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdvmes5.noarch.rpm 06d01833a4447328cf6ac6937cc1cc8a mes5/SRPMS/python-django-1.0.4-0.1mdvmes5.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
