Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Django.

Details:

Seokchan Yoon discovered that Django incorrectly handled copying memory
when parsing multipart uploads with excessive whitespace. A remote attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause Django to use excessive resources,
leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2026-33033)

It was discovered that Django did not enforce an upload memory size limit
in the Content-Length header. A remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause Django to use excessive resources, leading to a denial of
service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 25.10.
(CVE-2026-33034)

Tarek Nakkouch discovered that Django incorrectly handled underscores in
the ASGI headers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to spoof
HTTP headers. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS,
and Ubuntu 25.10. (CVE-2026-3902)

It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled verification of model
data created with POST requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to forge new model permissions. (CVE-2026-4277, CVE-2026-4292)
