CVE-2013-1443: DOS via large passwords
(updated )
The authentication framework (django.contrib.auth) computes the hash of a password each time a user attempts to log in, no matter the length of the password. Thus, a remote attacker can cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by repeatedly submitting long passwords.
