# Django 2.2.18 release notes

*February 1, 2021*

Django 2.2.18 fixes a security issue with severity «low» in 2.2.17.

## CVE-2021-3281: Potential directory-traversal via `archive.extract()`

The `django.utils.archive.extract()` function, used by
[`startapp --template`](/it/3.2/ref/django-admin/#cmdoption-startapp-template) and [`startproject --template`](/it/3.2/ref/django-admin/#cmdoption-startproject-template), allowed
directory-traversal via an archive with absolute paths or relative paths with
dot segments.
