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 Session Hijacking. The session.flush function in the cached_db backend did not properly flush the session, which allows remote attackers to hijack user sessions via an empty string in the session key.
