Threats affecting pkg:pypi/django-unicorn

Unicorn adds modern reactive component functionality to your Django templates. Prior to 0.67.0, component state manipulation is possible in django-unicorn due to missing access control checks during property updates and method calls. An attacker can bypass the intended _is_public protection to modify internal attributes such as template_name or trigger protected methods. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.67.0.

Django-Unicorn versions prior to 0.62.0 contain a python class pollution vulnerability (CWE-915) in the set_property_value function. This flaw allows remote attackers to manipulate the Python runtime environment by crafting component requests with malicious property paths, enabling arbitrary modification of global objects. Exploitation can lead to reflected and stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Denial of Service (DoS), and authentication bypass in applications using Django-Unicorn. The vulnerability is critical with a CVSS 4.0 score of 9.3. A fix is available in version 0.62.0.
