Summary
### Description django-jsonform stores the raw JSON data of the db field in a hidden textarea on the admin page. However, that data was kept in the textarea after unescaping it using the `safe` template filter. This opens up possibilities for XSS attacks. This only affects the admin pages where the django-jsonform is rendered. ### Mitigation Upgrade to django-jsonform version 2.10.1 or later. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * [Open an issue](https://github.com/bhch/django-jsonform/issues). * Email the maintainer at `Bharat Chauhan <[email protected]>`.
