Exposures project identifies the following problems:


CVE-2012-4520

Orange Tsai discovered that the bundled administrative interface
of django could expose supposedly-hidden information via its history

the number of forms in a formset to cause a denial-of-service attack
due to extreme memory consumption.

Michael Koziarski discovered that django's XML deserialization is
vulnerable to entity-expansion and external-entity/DTD attacks.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in
