How to fix?

Upgrade django-rest-registration to version 0.5.0 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Verification. verification.py relies on a static string for signatures (i.e., the Django Signing API is misused), which allows remote attackers to spoof the verification process. This occurs because incorrect code refactoring led to calling a security-critical function with an incorrect argument.
