Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from two key points: 1) The StatusCheck model's endpoint field (mapped to the Address column) lacked input validation via URLValidator
, enabling storage of untrusted data. 2) The template deliberately disabled autoescaping for error output, allowing execution of stored scripts. The fix added URL
validation and removed the autoescape override, confirming these as the vulnerable points.
