Django 2.2.4 release notes
==========================
*August 1, 2019*
Django 2.2.4 fixes security issues and several bugs in 2.2.3.
CVE-2019-14232: Denial-of-service possibility in ``django.utils.text.Truncator``
================================================================================
If ``django.utils.text.Truncator``'s ``chars()`` and ``words()`` methods
were passed the ``html=True`` argument, they were extremely slow to evaluate
certain inputs due to a catastrophic backtracking vulnerability in a regular
expression. The ``chars()`` and ``words()`` methods are used to implement the
:tfilter:`truncatechars_html` and :tfilter:`truncatewords_html` template
filters, which were thus vulnerable.
The regular expressions used by ``Truncator`` have been simplified in order to
avoid potential backtracking issues. As a consequence, trailing punctuation may
now at times be included in the truncated output.
Bugfixes
========
* Fixed a regression in Django 2.2 when ordering a ``QuerySet.union()``,
``intersection()``, or ``difference()`` by a field type present more than
once results in the wrong ordering being used (:ticket:`30628`).
* Fixed a migration crash on PostgreSQL when adding a check constraint
with a ``contains`` lookup on
:class:`~django.contrib.postgres.fields.DateRangeField` or
:class:`~django.contrib.postgres.fields.DateTimeRangeField`, if the right
hand side of an expression is the same type (:ticket:`30621`).
* Fixed a regression in Django 2.2 where auto-reloader crashes if a file path
contains nulls characters (``'\x00'``) (:ticket:`30506`).
* Fixed a regression in Django 2.2 where auto-reloader crashes if a translation
directory cannot be resolved (:ticket:`30647`).
