Comment (by Carlton Gibson):
Alexey, what was missing was a demonstration of how this might be
exploited. Yes, work on the related tickets but this wasn't something we
need to pick up as a security issue.
If that is not correct, a proof-of-concept sent privately to
[email protected] as per the
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/security/ Reporting
security issues guidance] is appreciated.
