SCA: security update for Django (GHSA-gvg8-93h5-g6qq)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 437494

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.2, 5.2 before 5.2.11, and 4.2 before 4.2.28. `FilteredRelation`
is subject to SQL injection in column aliases via control characters, using a suitably crafted dictionary,
with dictionary expansion, as the `**kwargs` passed to `QuerySet` methods `annotate()`, `aggregate()`,
`extra()`, `values()`, `values_list()`, and `alias()`. Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.0.x,
4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to thank Solomon Kebede
for reporting this issue. (CVE-2026-1287)
