Product & Service Introduction:
===============================
django CMS is a modern web publishing platform built with Django, the web application framework for perfectionists with deadlines.
django CMS offers out-of-the-box support for the common features you’d expect from a CMS, but can also be easily customised and
extended by developers to create a site that is tailored to their precise needs.

Technical Details & Description:
================================
A persistent input validation web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Django v3.2.3 Content Management System.
The security vulnerability allows remote attackers or privileged user accounts to inject own malicious script codes to the
application-side of the vulnerable modules web context.
The vulnerability is located in the `title`, `slug`, `menu_title`, `page_title` and `meta_description` values of the
`./cms/page/add/` module POST method request. Attackers are able to perform a malicious POST method request to trigger
a cross site scripting attack in the django admin interface index. The injection point would be the add page or subpage
module with the vulnerable input fields and the exection point occurs in the django admin interface menu were the
cms-messages or cms-messages-inner output values are located. After the add of a page or a subpage the following url
will represent the item (/en/iframe-srca20iframe222-iframe-srca20iframe223/). The cms-toolbar-trigger cms-toolbar-
trigger-expanded displays the message after the add procedure is successful done by interaction via POST method request.
The attack vector of the vulnerability is persistent and the request method to inject is POST.
The application has a csrf token that is implemented to the request, by changing the token in the live request to .%0/
the payload executes without session protection mechanism. The token implementation requires a reconfguration as well
to prevent csrf bypass attacks.
The security risk of the vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.6.
Exploitation of the vulnerability requires a low privileged web-application user account and low or medium user interaction.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, persistent phishing attacks, persistent external
redirects to malicious source and persistent manipulation of affected or connected application modules.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be resolved by a secure parse and encode of the vulnerable marked values in the add POST method request.
Encode and filter as well the cms-messages-inner and cms-messages output values in information module. Disallow usage of special
chars and escapte the entries to prevent further application-side script code injection attacks.
Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the application-side input validation vulnerability and filter bypass issue is estimated as medium. (CVSS 3.6)
