Django 3.1.12 fixes two security issues in 3.1.11.

CVE-2021-33203: Potential directory traversal via ``admindocs``
===============================================================

Staff members could use the :mod:`~django.contrib.admindocs`
``TemplateDetailView`` view to check the existence of arbitrary files.
Additionally, if (and only if) the default admindocs templates have been
customized by the developers to also expose the file contents, then not only
the existence but also the file contents would have been exposed.

As a mitigation, path sanitation is now applied and only files within the
template root directories can be loaded.

CVE-2021-33571: Possible indeterminate SSRF, RFI, and LFI attacks since validators accepted leading zeros in IPv4 addresses
===========================================================================================================================

:class:`~django.core.validators.URLValidator`,
:func:`~django.core.validators.validate_ipv4_address`, and
:func:`~django.core.validators.validate_ipv46_address` didn't prohibit leading
zeros in octal literals. If you used such values you could suffer from
indeterminate SSRF, RFI, and LFI attacks.

:func:`~django.core.validators.validate_ipv4_address` and
:func:`~django.core.validators.validate_ipv46_address` validators were not
affected on Python 3.9.5+.

Django 3.1.11 fixes a regression in 3.1.9.

Bugfixes
========

* Fixed a regression in Django 3.1.9 where saving ``FileField`` would raise a
``SuspiciousFileOperation`` even when a custom
:attr:`~django.db.models.FileField.upload_to` returns a valid file path
(:ticket:`32718`).

Django 3.1.10 fixes a security issue in 3.1.9.

CVE-2021-32052: Header injection possibility since ``URLValidator`` accepted newlines in input on Python 3.9.5+
===============================================================================================================

On Python 3.9.5+, :class:`~django.core.validators.URLValidator` didn't prohibit
newlines and tabs. If you used values with newlines in HTTP response, you could
suffer from header injection attacks. Django itself wasn't vulnerable because
:class:`~django.http.HttpResponse` prohibits newlines in HTTP headers.

Moreover, the ``URLField`` form field which uses ``URLValidator`` silently
removes newlines and tabs on Python 3.9.5+, so the possibility of newlines
entering your data only existed if you are using this validator outside of the
form fields.

This issue was introduced by the :bpo:`43882` fix.

*May 4, 2021*

Django 3.1.9 fixes a security issue in 3.1.8.

CVE-2021-31542: Potential directory-traversal via uploaded files
================================================================

``MultiPartParser``, ``UploadedFile``, and ``FieldFile`` allowed
directory-traversal via uploaded files with suitably crafted file names.

In order to mitigate this risk, stricter basename and path sanitation is now
applied.


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

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

*April 6, 2021*

Django 3.1.8 fixes a security issue with severity "low" and a bug in 3.1.7.

CVE-2021-28658: Potential directory-traversal via uploaded files
================================================================

``MultiPartParser`` allowed directory-traversal via uploaded files with
suitably crafted file names.

Built-in upload handlers were not affected by this vulnerability.

Bugfixes
========

* Fixed a bug in Django 3.1 where the output was hidden on a test error or
failure when using :option:`test --pdb` with the
:option:`--buffer <test --buffer>` option (:ticket:`32560`).


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

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

*February 19, 2021*

Django 3.1.7 fixes a security issue and a bug in 3.1.6.

CVE-2021-23336: Web cache poisoning via ``django.utils.http.limited_parse_qsl()``
=================================================================================

Django contains a copy of :func:`urllib.parse.parse_qsl` which was added to
backport some security fixes. A further security fix has been issued recently
such that ``parse_qsl()`` no longer allows using ``;`` as a query parameter
separator by default. Django now includes this fix. See :bpo:`42967` for
further details.

Bugfixes
========

* Fixed a regression in Django 3.1 that caused ``RuntimeError`` instead of
connection errors when using only the ``'postgres'`` database
(:ticket:`32403`).
