Package : python-django
CVE ID : CVE-2016-7401

Sergey Bobrov discovered that cookie parsing in Django and Google
Analytics interacted such a way that an attacker could set arbitrary
cookies. This allows other malicious web sites to bypass the
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protections built into Django.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.7.11-1+deb8u1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1:1.10-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.
