Upgrade Debian:11
python-django
to version 2:2.2.4-1 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:11
relevant fixed versions and status.
An issue was discovered in Django 1.11.x before 1.11.23, 2.1.x before 2.1.11, and 2.2.x before 2.2.4. Due to the behaviour of the underlying HTMLParser, django.utils.html.strip_tags would be extremely slow to evaluate certain inputs containing large sequences of nested incomplete HTML entities.
