What is CVE-2026-71461?

The vulnerability allows authenticated users to trigger Django FieldError or PostgreSQL DataError, which exposes sensitive information. Specifically, the HostList.list() method captures any exception generically, returning raw error strings that could reveal the application's internal database schema and sensitive data. This could lead to unauthorized data discovery, enabling attackers to gain insights into the underlying database structures and potentially exploit further vulnerabilities.
