Django 4.1.9 release notes
==========================
*May 3, 2023*
Django 4.1.9 fixes a security issue with severity "low" in 4.1.8.
CVE-2023-31047: Potential bypass of validation when uploading multiple files using one form field
=================================================================================================
Uploading multiple files using one form field has never been supported by
:class:`.forms.FileField` or :class:`.forms.ImageField` as only the last
uploaded file was validated. Unfortunately, :ref:`uploading_multiple_files`
topic suggested otherwise.
In order to avoid the vulnerability, :class:`~django.forms.ClearableFileInput`
and :class:`~django.forms.FileInput` form widgets now raise ``ValueError`` when
the ``multiple`` HTML attribute is set on them. To prevent the exception and
keep the old behavior, set ``allow_multiple_selected`` to ``True``.
For more details on using the new attribute and handling of multiple files
through a single field, see :ref:`uploading_multiple_files`.
