Package : django-anymail
CVE ID : CVE-2018-6596
Debian Bug : 889450

It was discovered that the webhook validation of Anymail, a Django email
backends for multiple ESPs, is prone to a timing attack. A remote
attacker can take advantage of this flaw to obtain a
WEBHOOK_AUTHORIZATION secret and post arbitrary email tracking events.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.8-2+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your django-anymail packages.
