{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-73228","details":"Django REST framework is a toolkit for building Web APIs. Prior to 3.17.2, Django REST Framework's request.data parsing in rest_framework/request.py Request._parse() passes the underlying HttpRequest stream to JSONParser and FormParser for application/json and application/x-www-form-urlencoded bodies, bypassing Django's DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE protection and allowing oversized request bodies to consume additional memory and CPU. This issue is fixed in version 3.17.2.","modified":"2026-09-12T08:47:23.818983422Z","published":"2026-08-11T19:18:52.603Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-73228"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-73228"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"djangorestframework","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/djangorestframework?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.14.0-2","3.14.0-2+deb12u1","3.15.1-1","3.15.1-2","3.15.2-1","3.15.2-2","3.16.0-1","3.16.1-1","3.16.1-3","3.16.1-4","3.17.1+ds1-1","3.17.1-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-73228.json"}},{"package":{"name":"djangorestframework","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/djangorestframework?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.16.0-1","3.16.1-1","3.16.1-3","3.16.1-4","3.17.1+ds1-1","3.17.1-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-73228.json"}},{"package":{"name":"djangorestframework","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/djangorestframework?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.16.0-1","3.16.1-1","3.16.1-3","3.16.1-4","3.17.1+ds1-1","3.17.1-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-73228.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L"}]}
