Django 1.5.2 版本发行说明

August 13, 2013

This is Django 1.5.2, a bugfix and security release for Django 1.5.

Mitigated possible XSS attack via user-supplied redirect URLs

Django relies on user input in some cases (e.g. django.contrib.auth.views.login(), django.contrib.comments, and i18n) to redirect the user to an "on success" URL. The security checks for these redirects (namely django.utils.http.is_safe_url()) didn't check if the scheme is http(s) and as such allowed javascript:... URLs to be entered. If a developer relied on is_safe_url() to provide safe redirect targets and put such a URL into a link, they could suffer from a XSS attack. This bug doesn't affect Django currently, since we only put this URL into the Location response header and browsers seem to ignore JavaScript there.

XSS vulnerability in django.contrib.admin

If a URLField is used in Django 1.5, it displays the current value of the field and a link to the target on the admin change page. The display routine of this widget was flawed and allowed for XSS.

漏洞修复
