Django 5.2.8 release notes

November 5, 2025

Django 5.2.8 fixes one security issue with severity "high", one security issue with severity "moderate", and several bugs in 5.2.7. It also adds compatibility with Python 3.14.

CVE-2025-64458: Potential denial-of-service vulnerability in HttpResponseRedirect and HttpResponsePermanentRedirect on Windows

Python's NFKC normalization is slow on Windows. As a consequence, HttpResponseRedirect, HttpResponsePermanentRedirect, and the shortcut redirect() were subject to a potential denial-of-service attack via certain inputs with a very large number of Unicode characters (follow up to CVE 2025-27556).

CVE-2025-64459: Potential SQL injection via _connector keyword argument

QuerySet.filter(), exclude(), get(), and Q were subject to SQL injection using a suitably crafted dictionary, with dictionary expansion, as the _connector argument.
