Hello Kurt, Steve, all,

Django recently released updates 1.3.4 and 1.4.2 to address a
Host: header poisoning problem and incorrect HttpOnly cookie
documentation (only wrong in 1.4.x).

I believe only the header poisoning problem requires a CVE (the
other problem is documentation; Django application authors may
make a mistake in their code if they go by the faulty
documentation), but I thought I should mention both in this CVE
request email as the Django announcement mentioned both:

https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2012/oct/17/security/

Commits: master:
https://github.com/django/django/commit/9305c0e12d43c4df999c3301a1f0c742264a657e


1.4 branch:
https://github.com/django/django/commit/92d3430f12171f16f566c9050c40feefb830a4a3
1.3 branch:
https://github.com/django/django/commit/b45c377f8f488955e0c7069cad3f3dd21910b071


This should be CVE-2012-4520: 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=691145

Cheers, Moritz


Thanks, good catch! BTW this is why I really, REALLY, REALLY!!! want
the projects to request CVE's when they release security updates, it
really prevents duplication, plus it also gets the CVE # out quickly
and makes tracking everything way easier.
