QID 981145

QID 981145: Python (pip) Security Update for django (GHSA-9r8w-6x8c-6jr9)

In Django 1.10.x before 1.10.8 and 1.11.x before 1.11.5, HTML autoescaping was disabled in a portion of the template for the technical 500 debug page. Given the right circumstances, this allowed a cross-site scripting attack. This vulnerability shouldn't affect most production sites since you shouldn't run with "DEBUG = True" (which makes this page accessible) in your production settings.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the targeted user.

CVSS V3 rated as High - 6.1 severity.

CVSS V2 rated as Medium - 4.3 severity.
