How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.6 python311-Django to version 4.2.11-150600.3.15.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python311-Django package and not the python311-Django package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue was discovered in Django 5.1 before 5.1.5, 5.0 before 5.0.11, and 4.2 before 4.2.18. Lack of upper-bound limit enforcement in strings passed when performing IPv6 validation could lead to a potential denial-of-service attack. The undocumented and private functions clean_ipv6_address and is_valid_ipv6_address are vulnerable, as is the django.forms.GenericIPAddressField form field. (The django.db.models.GenericIPAddressField model field is not affected.)
