AI-suggested

Until an official fix is released, users should consider restricting access to the image upload endpoint through external means such as network controls or application-level authentication proxies. Avoid exposing the vulnerable endpoint publicly and monitor for any unusual activity related to file uploads.

Description

All versions of the package django-mdeditor are vulnerable to Missing Authentication for Critical Function in the image upload endpoint. An attacker can upload malicious files and achieve arbitrary code execution since this endpoint lacks authentication protection and proper sanitisation of file names.
