CVE-2026-35192 Details
Description
An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.5 and 5.2 before 5.2.14. Response headers do not vary on cookies if a session is not modified, but `SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST` is `True`. A remote attacker can steal a user's session after that user visits a cached public page. Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to thank Cantina for reporting this issue.
A session fixation vulnerability has been identified in Django versions 6.0 prior to 6.0.5 and 5.2 prior to 5.2.14. The issue arises when the `SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST` setting is enabled, as response headers do not change on cookies if a session remains unaltered. This allows remote attackers to steal user sessions after they have visited a cached public page. Additionally, earlier unsupported Django series (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) may also be affected.
Users can upgrade to Django 6.0.5 or 5.2.14 to address this vulnerability.
