QID 982278

QID 982278: Python (pip) Security Update for Django (GHSA-qm57-vhq3-3fwf)

In Django 2.2 before 2.2.22, 3.1 before 3.1.10, and 3.2 before 3.2.2 (with Python 3.9.5+), URLValidator does not prohibit newlines and tabs (unless the URLField form field is used). If an application uses values with newlines in an HTTP response, header injection can occur. Django itself is unaffected because HttpResponse prohibits newlines in HTTP headers.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the targeted user.
