Alpine: py-django: security update to 1.10.7-r0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 406598

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

 - Django 1.10 before 1.10.7, 1.9 before 1.9.13, and 1.8 before 1.8.18 relies on user input in some cases to
 redirect the user to an "on success" URL. The security check for these redirects (namely
 ``django.utils.http.is_safe_url()``) considered some numeric URLs "safe" when they shouldn't be, aka an
 open redirect vulnerability. Also, if a developer relies on ``is_safe_url()`` to provide safe redirect
 targets and puts such a URL into a link, they could suffer from an XSS attack. (CVE-2017-7233)

 - A maliciously crafted URL to a Django (1.10 before 1.10.7, 1.9 before 1.9.13, and 1.8 before 1.8.18) site
 using the ``django.views.static.serve()`` view could redirect to any other domain, aka an open redirect
 vulnerability. (CVE-2017-7234)
