CVE-2018-7537: Denial-of-service possibility in ``truncatechars_html`` and ``truncatewords_html`` template filters

==================================================================================================================

23

If ``django.utils.text.Truncator``'s ``chars()`` and ``words()`` methods were
24
+
passed the ``html=True`` argument, they were extremely slow to evaluate certain
25
+
inputs due to a catastrophic backtracking vulnerability in a regular
26
+
expression. The ``chars()`` and ``words()`` methods are used to implement the
27

``truncatechars_html`` and ``truncatewords_html`` template filters, which were
28

thus vulnerable.

The backtracking problem in the regular expression is fixed.
