djust provides Phoenix LiveView-style reactive server-side rendering for Django with Rust-powered performance. Prior to 1.0.4, LiveViewConsumer.handle_mount sends a {"type":"navigate","to":...} frame when login_required, permission_required, or a redirecting on_mount hook denies a LiveView mount, but returns without closing the WebSocket or clearing self.view_instance. A browser follows the redirect, but a raw WebSocket client can ignore it and retain the mounted socket. Because LiveViewConsumer.handle_event does not recheck authentication or authorization, the client can send {"type":"event",...} frames that invoke @event_handler methods without an authenticated session, including through handle_live_redirect_mount, enabling unauthorized sensitive reads or mutations. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.4.
CVE-2026-55571
This high-severity CVE scores 8.2 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 80% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
