CVE-2024-11319

Advisory

Affected versions of django-cms are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (CWE-79). This vulnerability allows attackers to inject malicious scripts through page attributes, potentially compromising user sessions or executing unauthorized actions. The attack vector involves submitting crafted content to fields like page_title, which were previously not properly sanitized. The vulnerability existed in cms_tags.py where specific page attributes were not correctly escaped. This commit updates the code to use Django's escape function for all non-datetime page attributes, effectively mitigating the risk of XSS attacks.
