The remote host is missing an update for the 'python-django' package(s) announced via the USN-1560-1 advisory. It was discovered that Django incorrectly validated the scheme of a redirect target. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted URL, an attacker could possibly exploit this to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. It was also discovered that Django incorrectly handled validating certain images, which could lead to a denial of service, and incorrectly handled certain image dimensions, leading to resource consumption and denial of service
