CVE-2026-15307 high CVSS 8.8

Vulnerability in Django (CVE-2026-15307)

Summary

Vulnerability in Django (CVE-2026-15307). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover. Exploitable via django.contrib.gis.gdal.GDALRaster. Mitigation: upgrade to 6.0.8 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

An issue was discovered in Django 5.2 before 5.2.17 and 6.0 before 6.0.8.
GeoDjango spatial lookups optimistically parse the right-hand-side value as a raster by passing it to the django.contrib.gis.gdal.GDALRaster constructor. Any value used in a spatial lookup against a GeometryField or RasterField reaches this constructor, including untrusted input, for example a spatial-field filter submitted through the Django admin changelist query string by a staff user with view permission. A dict, or a str holding its JSON representation, is opened in write mode regardless of the constructor's write=False default, allowing a file with an attacker-chosen name and contents to be written through a file-backed GDAL driver. Any other str is treated as a datasource, allowing an outbound network request through a GDAL virtual filesystem handler. Writing a file to a location later imported by the application can result in remote code execution.
Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.1.x, 5.0.x, and 4.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected.
Django would like to thank Bence Nagy, localhost-detect, and kimchunbok_ for reporting this issue.

❓ What is the problem

A vulnerability (CWE-73) exists in Django. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via django.contrib.gis.gdal.GDALRaster.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Django. Attack surface: django.contrib.gis.gdal.GDALRaster / GeometryField / RasterField / dict.

🔥 Severity

Severity: High (CVSS 8.8/10). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 6.0.8.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'Django' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify 
    grep -r 'Django' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で Django を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch 
    Upgrade Django to 6.0.8

    ステージング環境で 6.0.8 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  3. 3
    Post-deployment verification verify 
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
