CVE-2024-53908: Django Potential SQL injection in `HasKey(lhs, rhs)` on Oracle
Summary
CVE-2024-53908: Potential SQL injection in HasKey(lhs, rhs) on Oracle
Direct usage of the django.db.models.fields.json.HasKey lookup on Oracle is subject to SQL injection if untrusted data is used as a lhs value. Applications that use the jsonfield.has_key lookup through the __ syntax are unaffected.
