Security Vulnerabilities
An issue was discovered in Django 5.2 before 5.2.17 and 6.0 before 6.0.8.
`django.utils.translation.check_for_language()` is subject to a potential denial-of-service attack when given many distinct, very long language codes, which are retained as keys in an in-memory cache and consume process memory. Such codes reach the function through the `django.views.i18n.set_language()` view, which is not routed by default. The consumed memory is bounded, since request data is limited by the `DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE` setting (default 2.5 MB) and the cache holds a fixed maximum number of entries.
Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.1.x, 5.0.x, and 4.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected.
Django would like to thank Jaeyoung Jang for reporting this issue.

An issue was discovered in Django 5.2 before 5.2.17 and 6.0 before 6.0.8.
GeoDjango's `django.contrib.gis.geos.GEOSGeometry` is subject to a potential denial-of-service when parsing deeply nested `GEOMETRYCOLLECTION` objects supplied as well-known text (WKT), well-known binary (WKB), or hex-encoded WKB, which triggers unbounded recursion and a segmentation fault in the underlying GEOS library. Spatial field lookups and the `django.contrib.gis.forms.GeometryField` form field are also affected.
Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.1.x, 5.0.x, and 4.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected.
Django would like to thank Andrew MacPherson and kimchunbok_ for reporting this issue.
