Description Andrej Nemec 2016-09-19 13:56:57 UTC
An interaction between Google Analytics and Django's cookie parsing
could allow an attacker to set arbitrary cookies leading to a bypass of
CSRF protection.

The parser for ``request.COOKIES`` is simplified to better match the
behavior of browsers and to mitigate this attack. ``request.COOKIES``
may now contain cookies that are invalid according to RFC 6265 but are
possible to set via ``document.cookie``.

Comment 13 Siddharth Sharma 2016-09-27 06:19:19 UTC
Statement:

This issue did not affect the versions of calamari-server as shipped with Red Hat Ceph Storage 1.3 and 2.0 as they did not include support for google analytics with Django.
