CVE-2026-61594
Published:September 16, 2026
Updated:October 09, 2026
djust provides Phoenix LiveView-style reactive server-side rendering for Django with Rust-powered performance. Prior to version 1.0.7, the live (WebSocket) transport authorizes a mount via "check_view_auth", not Django's "View.dispatch()" chain. As a result, standard Django authorization — "LoginRequiredMixin", "PermissionRequiredMixin", "UserPassesTestMixin", "@method_decorator(login_required, name="dispatch")", and custom "dispatch()" guards — and the djust admin extension's staff gate (applied only in the HTTP "as_view" wrapper) were enforced on the initial HTTP GET but silently bypassed over WebSocket, where all events and state flow. An anonymous or under-privileged client could open a WebSocket and mount such a view — including admin list/create/change/delete — and dispatch its handlers. This is fixed in djust 1.0.7. "check_view_auth" now honors the Django "AccessMixin" family on every transport; a new system check S004 fails loud at startup on auth patterns the runtime cannot safely replay (decorator/overridden-"dispatch" forms); and the admin base mixin declares "login_required = True" + an active-staff "check_permissions" gate. As a workaround, gate views using djust's "login_required" / "permission_required" / "check_permissions" attributes (honored on all transports) rather than HTTP-only mixins/decorators.
