NVD description
An issue was discovered in Django 5.2 before 5.2.17 and 6.0 before 6.0.8. GeoDjango's `django.contrib.gis.geos.GEOSGeometry` is subject to a potential denial-of-service when parsing deeply nested `GEOMETRYCOLLECTION` objects supplied as well-known text (WKT), well-known binary (WKB), or hex-encoded WKB, which triggers unbounded recursion and a segmentation fault in the underlying GEOS library. Spatial field lookups and the `django.contrib.gis.forms.GeometryField` form field are also affected. Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.1.x, 5.0.x, and 4.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to thank Andrew MacPherson and kimchunbok_ for reporting this issue.

Django patched four critical vulnerabilities across admin and spatial query handling. CVE-2026-15920 tightens URL validation in display_for_field() to prevent malicious admin links. CVE-2026-15307 blocks raster strings and dicts in spatial lookups. CVE-2026-15830 mitigates DoS via nested geometry collections. CVE-2026-15337 hardens check_for_language() against DoS. All four added to the security archive. If you're running Django in production with admin or GIS enabled, patch today. #django https://repojournal.com/showcase/django/2026-08-05/django-patches-four-critical-vulnerabilities-in-admin-and-spatial-queries
