Description James Bennett 2007-01-19 21:54:12 UTC 
A vulnerability in the script used by Django to compile message files for use by its internationalization 
system was discovered and fixed after the 0.95 release; the compile-messages script was not escaping the 
names of files it handled, which meant that arbitrary commands could be executed as a result of 
maliciously-named .po files.

This was fixed in revision 3592 of Django trunk[1], and that changeset applies cleanly to stock Django 
0.95.
