Django 5.2.6 release notes
==========================

*September 3, 2025*

Django 5.2.6 fixes a security issue with severity "high" and one bug in 5.2.5.

CVE-2025-57833: Potential SQL injection in ``FilteredRelation`` column aliases
==============================================================================

:class:`.FilteredRelation` was subject to SQL injection in column aliases,
using a suitably crafted dictionary, with dictionary expansion, as the
``**kwargs`` passed to :meth:`.QuerySet.annotate` or :meth:`.QuerySet.alias`.

Bugfixes
========

* Fixed a bug where using ``QuerySet.values()`` or ``values_list()`` with a
  ``ForeignObject`` composed of multiple fields returned incorrect results
  instead of tuples of the referenced fields (:ticket:`36431`).
