Mageia 2021-0135: python-django security update
Summary
Django contains a copy of urllib.parse.parse_qsl() which was added to backport
some security fixes to prevent web cache poisoning. A further security fix has
been issued recently such that parse_qsl() no longer allows using ; as a query
parameter separator by default (CVE-2021-23336).
