Title: Django URL Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Django is a web development framework.
The application is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability because it allows unauthorized users to access files on a victim's computer. Specifically, the application fails to properly check if the requested file is a static media file used by Django.
An attacker can exploit this issue by crafting and submitting a URI.
Exploiting the issue may allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information that could aid in further attacks.
Django development trunk, 0.96, and 1.0 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
