Debian DSA-4705-1 : python-django - security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 137673

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

It was discovered that Django, a high-level Python web development framework, did not properly sanitize input. This would allow a remote attacker to perform SQL injection attacks, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks, or leak sensitive information.

Solution

Upgrade the python-django packages.

For the oldstable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 1:1.10.7-2+deb9u9.

For the stable distribution (buster), these problems have been fixed in version 1:1.11.29-1~deb10u1.
