USN-2915-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Django. The upstream fix for CVE-2016-2512 introduced a regression for certain applications. This update fixes the problem.
Mark Striemer discovered that Django incorrectly handled user-supplied redirect URLs containing basic authentication credentials. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a cross-site scripting attack or a malicious redirect. (CVE-2016-2512)
Sjoerd Job Postmus discovered that Django incorrectly handled timing when doing password hashing operations. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform user enumeration. (CVE-2016-2513).
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
