CVE-2026-71240: DjangoCRM: Unauthenticated Open Redirect via toggle_default_sorting next_url Parameter

Published Aug 5, 2026
·
Updated

DjangoCRM's toggledefaultsorting view is the only route in common/urls.py that is not wrapped in loginrequired or staffmemberrequired, and it redirects to a caller-supplied nexturl GET parameter after only checking secureurl(nexturl), which merely verifies the target host matches the current site's domain (blocking only cross-domain redirects) while allowing any same-site path with no authentication required to reach the view. This enables unauthenticated phishing redirects and referrer-based token leakage via redirect chains.
