CVE-2011-4136

django.contrib.sessions in Django before 1.2.7 and 1.3.x before 1.3.1, when session data is stored in the cache, uses the root namespace for both session identifiers and application-data keys, which allows remote attackers to modify a session by triggering use of a key that is equal to that session’s identifier. (CVSS:5.8) (Last Update:2011-10-19)

CVE-2011-4139

Django before 1.2.7 and 1.3.x before 1.3.1 uses a request’s HTTP Host header to construct a full URL in certain circumstances, which allows remote attackers to conduct cache poisoning attacks via a crafted request. (CVSS:5.0) (Last Update:2011-10-19)

CVE-2011-4140

The CSRF protection mechanism in Django through 1.2.7 and 1.3.x through 1.3.1 does not properly handle web-server configurations supporting arbitrary HTTP Host headers, which allows remote attackers to trigger unauthenticated forged requests via vectors involving a DNS CNAME record and a web page containing JavaScript code. (CVSS:6.8) (Last Update:2011-10-19)

CVE-2011-4138

The verify_exists functionality in the URLField implementation in Django before 1.2.7 and 1.3.x before 1.3.1 originally tests a URL’s validity through a HEAD request, but then uses a GET request for the new target URL in the case of a redirect, which might allow remote attackers to trigger arbitrary GET requests with an unintended source IP address via a crafted Location header. (CVSS:5.0) (Last Update:2011-10-19)

Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A vulnerability exists in Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) due to improper validation of user-controlled input to the web-based administrative interface. User-controlled input supplied to the login page via the HTTP User-Agent header is not properly sanitized for illegal or malicious content prior to being returned to the user in dynamically generated web content. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to perform reflected cross-site scripting attacks.
