A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

Summary:

Django could be made to consume resources or crash if it received specially
crafted network traffic.

Software Description:
- python-django: High-level Python web development framework

Details:

Wenchao Li discovered that the Django Truncator function incorrectly
handled very long HTML input. A remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause Django to consume resources, leading to a denial of service.
