Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201808-3
=========================================
Severity: Medium
Date : 2018-08-03
CVE-ID : CVE-2018-14574
Package : python2-django
Type : open redirect
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-746
Summary
=======
The package python2-django before version 1.11.15-1 is vulnerable to
open redirect.
Resolution
==========
Upgrade to 1.11.15-1.
# pacman -Syu "python2-django>=1.11.15-1"
The problem has been fixed upstream in version 1.11.15.
Workaround
==========
Disable the APPEND_SLASH setting.
Description
===========
If the django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware and the APPEND_SLASH
setting are both enabled, and if the project has a URL pattern that
accepts any path ending in a slash (many content management systems
have such a pattern), then a request to a maliciously crafted URL of
that site could lead to a redirect to another site, enabling phishing
and other attacks.
Impact
======
A remote attacker is able to redirect a user to an attacker-controlled
website.
