This could allow remote attackers to saturate the session store or cause other users' session records to be evicted. CVE-2015-5144 Sjoerd Job Postmus discovered that some built-in validators did not properly reject newlines in input values. This could allow remote attackers to inject headers in emails and HTTP responses. For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.5-1+deb7u12. For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in version 1.7.7-1+deb8u1. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.
