Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

' Today the Django team has released Django 1.2.3, which remedies several issues with the recent 1.2.2 package.

This package corrects the following problems :

- The patch applied for the security issue covered in Django 1.2.2 caused issues with non-ASCII responses using CSRF tokens. This has been remedied.

- The patch also caused issues with some forms, most notably the user-editing forms in the Django administrative interface. This has been remedied.

- The packaging manifest did not contain the full list of required files. This has been remedied. '

See: http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2010/sep/10/123/ See http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2010/sep/08/security-release/

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected Django package.
