CVE-2019-14232 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Ubuntu security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Ubuntu:14.04.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-django package and not the python-django package as distributed by Ubuntu.
An issue was discovered in Django 1.11.x before 1.11.23, 2.1.x before 2.1.11, and 2.2.x before 2.2.4. If django.utils.text.Truncator's chars() and words() methods were passed the html=True argument, they were extremely slow to evaluate certain inputs due to a catastrophic backtracking vulnerability in a regular expression. The chars() and words() methods are used to implement the truncatechars_html and truncatewords_html template filters, which were thus vulnerable.
