=========================================

Severity: High
Date    : 2019-07-06
CVE-ID  : CVE-2019-12781
Package : python-django
Type    : silent downgrade
Remote  : Yes
Link    : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-1000

Summary
=======

The package python-django before version 2.2.3-1 is vulnerable to
silent downgrade.

Resolution
==========

Upgrade to 2.2.3-1.

# pacman -Syu "python-django>=2.2.3-1"

The problem has been fixed upstream in version 2.2.3.

Workaround
==========

None.

Description
===========

An HTTP request is not redirected to HTTPS when the
SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER and SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT settings are used, and
the proxy connects to Django via HTTPS. In other words,
django.http.HttpRequest.scheme has incorrect behavior when a client
uses HTTP.

Impact
======

A remote attacker is able to perform a man-in-the-middle attack if a
HTTP request is not redirected to HTTPS.
