Summary

The default configuration for the file upload handling system in Django before 1.4.14, 1.5.x before 1.5.9, 1.6.x before 1.6.6, and 1.7 before release candidate 3 uses a sequential file name generation process when a file with a conflicting name is uploaded, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by unloading a multiple files with the same name.

    descriptionThis update address an issue with reverse() generating external URLs; a denial of service involving file uploads; a potential session hijacking issue in the remote-user middleware; and a data leak in the administrative interface. http://www.freexian.com/services/debian-lts.html CVE-2014-0480 Django includes the helper function django.core.urlresolvers.reverse, typically used to generate a URL from a reference to a view function or URL pattern name. However, when presented with input beginning with two forward-slash characters (//), reverse() could generate scheme-relative URLs to other hosts, allowing an attacker who is aware of unsafe use of reverse() (i.e., in a situation where an end user can control the target of a redirect, to take a common example) to generate links to sites of their choice, enabling phishing and other attacks. To remedy this, URL reversing now ensures that no URL starts with two slashes (//), replacing the second slash with its URL encoded counterpart (%2F). This approach ensures that semantics stay the same, while making the URL relative to the domain and not to the scheme. CVE-2014-0481 In the default configuration, when Django
