Upgrade Debian:10 python-django to version 1.3.1-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-django package and not the python-django package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.
Django before 1.2.7 and 1.3.x before 1.3.1 uses a request's HTTP Host header to construct a full URL in certain circumstances, which allows remote attackers to conduct cache poisoning attacks via a crafted request.
