CVE-2020-13596
Description
A flaw was found in Django, where the query parameters for the admin widget ForeignKeyRawIdWidget were not properly URL encoded. This flaw allows an attacker to perform a Cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
Statement
The following products ship the flawed code, however they do not make use of ForeignKeyRawIdWidget and are therefore not vulnerable to this flaw:
- Red Hat Satellite 6
- Red Hat Update Infrastructure 3
- Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13, 15, & 16
- Red Hat Gluster Storage 3
The version of python-django shipped with Red Hat Ceph Storage(RHCS) was used with calamari and graphite which are no more supported, hence the django package will not be fixed for RHCS.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
