    Version        : 2:2.2.28-1~deb11u9
    CVE IDs        : CVE-2025-59681 CVE-2025-59682
    Debian Bug     : 1116979

    It was discovered that there were two vulnerabilities in Django, a
    popular web development framework:

     * CVE-2025-59681: Fix a potential SQL injection in
       QuerySet.annotate(), alias(), aggregate() and extra(). These
       methods were subject to SQL injection in column aliases, using a
       suitably crafted dictionary via dictionary expansion as the
       **kwargs passed to these methods on MySQL and MariaDB.

     * CVE-2025-59682: Fix a potential partial directory-traversal
       vulnerability in archive.extract(). This function, used by
       startapp --template and startproject --template allowed partial
       directory-traversal via an archive with file paths sharing a
       common prefix with the target directory.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
    2:2.2.28-1~deb11u9.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-django packages.
