2026-03-03[6.0.x] Fixed CVE-2026-25674 -- Prevented potentially incorrect permissions ↵Natalia
on file system object creation. This fix introduces `safe_makedirs()` in the `os` utils as a safer alternative to `os.makedirs()` that avoids umask-related race conditions in multi-threaded environments. This is a workaround for https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/86533 and the solution is based on the fix being proposed for CPython. Co-authored-by: Gregory P. Smith <68491+gpshead@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Zackery Spytz <zspytz@gmail.com> Refs CVE-2020-24583 and #31921. Thanks Tarek Nakkouch for the report, and Jake Howard, Jacob Walls, and Shai Berger for reviews. Backport of 019e44f67a8dace67b786e2818938c8691132988 from main.
2026-03-03[6.0.x] Fixed CVE-2026-25673 -- Simplified URLField scheme detection.Natalia
This simplicaftion mitigates a potential DoS in URLField on Windows. The usage of `urlsplit()` in `URLField.to_python()` was replaced with `str.partition(":")` for URL scheme detection. On Windows, `urlsplit()` performs Unicode normalization which is slow for certain characters, making `URLField` vulnerable to DoS via specially crafted POST payloads. Thanks Seokchan Yoon for the report, and Jake Howard and Shai Berger for the review. Refs #36923.

It's not clear that CLAs are needed to ensure contributors are assenting to our license (the "inbound=outbound" agreement), but we can keep them around for contributors who would like to (or are required by their employer) to submit one, without investing additional resources in checking every single contribution. See https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/cla-vs-dco-for-django-contributors/42399 and recent board minutes. Backport of 0dac3dd4a1573b3c9cef3aea6a98440decfc5460 from main.

2026-02-03[6.0.x] Fixed CVE-2026-1312 -- Protected order_by() from SQL injection via ↵Jacob Walls
aliases with periods. Before, `order_by()` treated a period in a field name as a sign that it was requested via `.extra(order_by=...)` and thus should be passed through as raw table and column names, even if `extra()` was not used. Since periods are permitted in aliases, this meant user-controlled aliases could force the `order_by()` clause to resolve to a raw table and column pair instead of the actual target field for the alias. In practice, only `FilteredRelation` was affected, as the other expressions we tested, e.g. `F`, aggressively optimize away the ordering expressions into ordinal positions, e.g. ORDER BY 2, instead of ORDER BY "table".column. Thanks Solomon Kebede for the report, and Simon Charette and Jake Howard for reviews. Backport of 69065ca869b0970dff8fdd8fafb390bf8b3bf222 from main.
2026-02-03[6.0.x] Fixed CVE-2026-1287 -- Protected against SQL injection in column ↵Jake Howard
aliases via control characters. Control characters in FilteredRelation column aliases could be used for SQL injection attacks. This affected QuerySet.annotate(), aggregate(), extra(), values(), values_list(), and alias() when using dictionary expansion with **kwargs. Thanks Solomon Kebede for the report, and Simon Charette, Jacob Walls, and Natalia Bidart for reviews. Backport of e891a84c7ef9962bfcc3b4685690219542f86a22 from main.
2026-02-03[6.0.x] Fixed CVE-2026-1285 -- Mitigated potential DoS in ↵Natalia
django.utils.text.Truncator for HTML input. The `TruncateHTMLParser` used `deque.remove()` to remove tags from the stack when processing end tags. With crafted input containing many unmatched end tags, this caused repeated full scans of the tag stack, leading to quadratic time complexity. The fix uses LIFO semantics, only removing a tag from the stack when it matches the most recently opened tag. This avoids linear scans for unmatched end tags and reduces complexity to linear time. Refs #30686 and 6ee37ada3241ed263d8d1c2901b030d964cbd161. Thanks Seokchan Yoon for the report, and Jake Howard and Jacob Walls for reviews.

2026-01-29[6.0.x] Fixed #36847 -- Ensured auto_now_add fields are set on pre_save().Nilesh Kumar Pahari
Regression in 94680437a45a71c70ca8bd2e68b72aa1e2eff337. Refs #27222. During INSERT operations, `field.pre_save()` is called to prepare values for db insertion. The `add` param must be `True` for `auto_now_add` fields to be populated. The regression commit passed `False`, causing `auto_now_add` fields to remain `None` when used by other fields, such as `upload_to` callables. Thanks Ran Benita for the report.

Regression in a16eedcf9c69d8a11d94cac1811018c5b996d491. The UNNEST strategy is affected by the same problem bulk_update has wrt/ to silent data truncation due to its usage of db_type which always returns a parametrized subtype. Backport of d6ae2ed868e43671afc4d433c3d8f4d27f7eb555 from main.
2025-12-31[6.0.x] Fixed #36829 -- Reverted value of ClearableFileInput.use_fieldset to ↵Johannes Maron
True. There was unresolved discussion regarding whether to set ClearableFileInput.use_fieldset to True or False when use_fieldset was introduced in Django 4.1, since the clear checkbox appears only sometimes. Although using <fieldset> is likely desirable, since the primary motivation in #35892 was just to improve markup in the admin, and a deprecation path was not provided for general form usage, future work is deferred to #36828. Regression in 4187da258fe212d494cb578a0bc2b52c4979ab95. Thanks Tim Graham, Antoliny, and David Smith for triage.
