Does this affect you?

It affects djangoproject Django. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.4, 5.2 before 5.2.13, and 4.2 before 4.2.30. Add permissions on inline model instances were not validated on submission of forged `POST` data in `GenericInlineModelAdmin`. Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to thank N05ec@LZU-DSLab for reporting this issue.
