QID 982897: Python (pip) Security Update for djangorestframework (GHSA-fx83-3ph3-9j2q)

A flaw was found in Django REST Framework versions before 3.12.0 and before 3.11.2.

This allows a user who can control those strings to inject malicious <script> tags, leading to a cross-site-scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

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

CVSS V3 rated as High - 6.1 severity.
