How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 python-django-bash-completion.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-django-bash-completion package and not the python-django-bash-completion package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Django 3.2 before 3.2.17, 4.0 before 4.0.9, and 4.1 before 4.1.6, the parsed values of Accept-Language headers are cached in order to avoid repetitive parsing. This leads to a potential denial-of-service vector via excessive memory usage if the raw value of Accept-Language headers is very large.
