Wagtail is vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS). The vulnerability is due to inefficient regular expression handling in the parse_query_string process for long query strings without spaces, allowing attackers to submit crafted queries that consume excessive server resources and potentially cause a crash.
