It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled numeric redirect URLs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform XSS attacks, and to use a Django server as an open redirect.
(CVE-2017-7233)

Phithon Gong discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain URLs when the jango.views.static.serve() view is being used. A remote attacker could possibly use a Django server as an open redirect.
(CVE-2017-7234).

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.
