The flaw resides in the Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport implementation, which keyed sessions solely by client-provided session identifiers without verifying session ownership or binding. This allows an attacker who possesses or guesses a victim's session identifier to send malicious post messages to execute arbitrary state machine event handlers under the identity and permissions of the victim.\n\n## TL;DR\nThe djust framework prior to 1.0.7 accepted client-supplied session IDs in the Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport without verifying user ownership, enabling session hijacking and unauthorized state execution.\n\n## Technical Details\n\n- **CWE ID**: CWE-384 / CWE-862\n- **Attack Vector**: Network\n- **CVSS Score**: 7.4\n- **EPSS Score**: 0.00\n- **Impact**: Session Hijacking / Privilege Escalation\n- **Exploit Status**: none\n- **KEV Status**: not listed\n\n## Affected Systems\n\n- djust-org djust framework, versions prior to 1.0.7\n- **djust**: &lt; 1.0.7 (Fixed in: `1.0.7`)\n\n## Mitigation\n\n- Upgrade the djust library to version 1.0.7 or higher.\n- Disable the SSE transport layer in Django settings to force secure WebSocket transport fallback.\n- Correlate HTTP requests to detect cross-principal session interactions.\n\n**Remediation Steps:**\n1. Verify the installed djust version in your requirements or environment files.\n2. Update djust package dependency to 1.0.7.\n3. Configure DJUST_SSE_ENABLED = False in settings.py if immediate patching is unavailable.\n4. Deploy the updated code to the target environments.\n5. Monitor reverse proxy and application gateway logs for anomalous cross-IP session identifiers.\n\n## References\n\n- [GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-f795-p5jw-j6g2](https://github.com/djust-org/djust/security/advisories/GHSA-f795-p5jw-j6g2)\n- [djust Release v1.0.7](https://github.com/djust-org/djust/releases/tag/v1.0.7)\n- [NVD - CVE-2026-61592](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-61592)\n- [CVE Record - CVE-2026-61592](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-61592)\n- [Wiz Vulnerability Database](https://www.wiz.io/vulnerability-database/cve/cve-2026-61592)\n\n\n---\n*Generated by [CVEReports](https://cvereports.com/reports/CVE-2026-61592) - Automated Vulnerability Intelligence*", "creation_timestamp": "2026-09-17T12:31:50.608280Z"}]}
