Technical details
A session fixation/leakage vulnerability exists in Django when SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST is set to True. In affected versions, response headers do not properly vary on cookies if a session is not modified during a request. This can cause downstream caches (like CDNs or local proxies) to store and serve a response containing a specific user's session cookie to other users who request the same public page. An attacker can then use the leaked cookie to impersonate the victim. The issue is fixed in Django 6.0.5 and 5.2.14.
