"The detected version of the Django Python package is 5.2.x prior to 5.2.16 or 6.0.x prior to 6.0.7. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - django.contrib.gis.gdal.GDALRaster over-reads its in-memory buffer when constructed from a bytes object,
    which can disclose adjacent memory or cause service degradation via a potential segmentation fault when the
    vsi_buffer property is accessed. (CVE-2026-53877)

  - DomainNameValidator does not prohibit newlines in domain names. If an application uses values with newlines
    in an HTTP response, header injection can occur. (CVE-2026-53878)

  - UpdateCacheMiddleware and the cache_page() decorator cache responses that vary on cookies when the incoming
    request carries unrelated cookies, which allows remote attackers to read private data from the shared cache.
    (CVE-2026-48588)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
