Critical SQL Injection Vulnerability in Django (CVE-2025-64459)
Blog post from Endor Labs
A critical SQL injection vulnerability, identified as CVE-2025-64459, has been discovered in Django, a popular Python web framework used in numerous web applications. This vulnerability allows attackers to manipulate database query logic by injecting internal query parameters when applications pass user-controlled input directly into Django's QuerySet methods. This flaw can lead to unauthorized data access, authentication bypass, and privilege escalation, posing a significant threat due to its high impact and low attack complexity, with a CVSS score of 9.1. Affected versions include Django 6.0, 5.2, 5.1, and 4.2, as well as potentially older versions, necessitating an immediate upgrade to patched versions 5.2.8, 5.1.14, or 4.2.26. To mitigate the risk, Django has implemented a two-layer validation system, while developers are urged to review and update their codebases, avoid passing user-controlled data directly into QuerySet methods, and adopt secure coding practices.
