How to fix?

Overview

django-allauth is an integrated set of Django applications addressing authentication, registration, account management as well as 3rd party (social) account authentication.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Timing Attack which allows an attacker to infer whether or not a given account exists based on the response time of an authentication attempt. This occurs even when account enumeration prevention is turned on.
