Vulnerability Summary

An issue exists in Django 2.0 prior to 2.0.3, 1.11 prior to 1.11.11, and 1.8 prior to 1.8.19. The django.utils.html.urlize() function was extremely slow to evaluate certain inputs due to catastrophic backtracking vulnerabilities in two regular expressions (only one regular expression for Django 1.8.x). The urlize() function is used to implement the urlize and urlizetrunc template filters, which were thus vulnerable.
