🐍django-jsonform

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

django-jsonform stores the raw JSON data of the db field in a hidden textarea on the admin page. However, that data was kept in the textarea after unescaping it using the safe template filter. This opens up possibilities for XSS attacks.

This only affects the admin pages where the django-jsonform is rendered.

Mitigation

Upgrade to django-jsonform version 2.10.1 or later.
