SCA: security update for Django (GHSA-5hrc-gvxj-w55p)

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 441630

Description

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

- An issue was discovered in 6.0 before 6.0.5 and 5.2 before 5.2.14.
`django.middleware.cache.UpdateCacheMiddleware` erroneously caches requests where the `Vary` header
contained an asterisk (`'*'`). This can lead to private data being stored and served. 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 Ahmad Sadeddin for reporting this issue. (CVE-2026-6907)
