Django before 1.8.x before 1.8.16, 1.9.x before 1.9.11, and 1.10.x before 1.10.3, when settings.DEBUG is True, allow remote attackers to conduct DNS rebinding attacks by leveraging failure to validate the HTTP Host header against settings.ALLOWED_HOSTS.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a Django configuration-dependent vulnerability. If an affected Django version runs with DEBUG enabled, attackers may abuse Host header handling through DNS rebinding. The business risk is mainly exposed development, staging, or misconfigured production systems using old Django releases. Exposure is limited to affected Django 1.8.x, 1.9.x, or 1.10.x deployments where settings.DEBUG is True. Internet-reachable debug, staging, demo, or forgotten legacy services are the most likely candidates. Prioritize legacy Django applications that are still reachable and may have debug settings enabled. This is not evidenced as actively exploited here, but it is a preventable exposure with clear upgrade and configuration actions. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Django to 1.8.16, 1.9.11, 1.10.3, or a later supported release.; Ensure settings.DEBUG is False outside local development.; Review settings.ALLOWED_HOSTS for explicit expected hostnames..
