Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Impact With Django Debug Toolbar attackers are able to execute SQL by changing the rawsql input of the SQL explain, analyze or select forms and submitting the form. NOTE: This is a high severity issue for anyone using the toolbar in a production environment. Generally the Django Debug Toolbar team only maintains the latest version of django-debug-toolbar, but an exception was made because of the high severity of this issue. Patches Please upgrade to one of the following versions, depending on the major version you're using: - Version 1.x: django-debug-toolbar 1.11.1 - Version 2.x: django-debug-toolbar 2.2.1 - Version 3.x: django-debug-toolbar 3.2.1 For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: Open an issue in the django-debug-toolbar repo (Please NO SENSITIVE INFORMATION, send an email instead!)

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2021-30459

Advisory: SQL Injection via in django-debug-toolbar
IDs: CVE-2021-30459, GHSA-pghf-347x-c2gj
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2021-30459 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:17 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 7.2)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: django-debug-toolbar 3.2.1, 2.2.1, 1.11.1. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- PyPI django-debug-toolbar: affected >= 0.10.0, < 1.11.1; >= 2.0a1, < 2.2.1; >= 3.0a1, < 3.2.1; fixed in 3.2.1, 1.11.1, 2.2.1

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `python -m pip show django-debug-toolbar`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on django-debug-toolbar.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
