    Package        : python-django     Version        : 2:2.2.28-1~deb11u6     CVE ID         : CVE-2025-26699     Debian Bug     : 1099682

    It was discovered that there was a potential denial-of-service (DoS)     vulnerability in Django, a Python-based web development framework.

    The issue was situated in the wrap() method of the django.utils.text     module. This method and the wordwrap template filter were subject to     a potential DoS attack when used with very long strings.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version     2:2.2.28-1~deb11u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.
