Alpine: Django: security update to 1.2.5-r1 (deprecated)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 401205

Description

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

- The (1) django.http.HttpResponseRedirect and (2) django.http.HttpResponsePermanentRedirect classes in
Django before 1.3.2 and 1.4.x before 1.4.1 do not validate the scheme of a redirect target, which might
allow remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a data: URL. (CVE-2012-3442)

- The django.forms.ImageField class in the form system in Django before 1.3.2 and 1.4.x before 1.4.1
completely decompresses image data during image validation, which allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (memory consumption) by uploading an image file. (CVE-2012-3443)

- The get_image_dimensions function in the image-handling functionality in Django before 1.3.2 and 1.4.x
before 1.4.1 uses a constant chunk size in all attempts to determine dimensions, which allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (process or thread consumption) via a large TIFF image.
(CVE-2012-3444)
