Overview

Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Web Cache Poisoning. It does not properly include the Vary: Cookie or Cache-Control header in responses, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or poison the cache via a request from certain browsers.
