CVE-2021-45115

pypi/Django

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

An issue was discovered in Django. UserAttributeSimilarityValidator incurred significant overhead in evaluating a submitted password that was artificially large in relation to the comparison values. In a situation where access to user registration was unrestricted, this provided a potential vector for a denial-of-service attack.

All versions starting from 2.2 before 2.2.26, all versions starting from 3.2 before 3.2.11, all versions starting from 4.0 before 4.0.1

Upgrade to versions 2.2.26, 3.2.11, 4.0.1 or above.
