An issue was discovered in Django 1.11.x before 1.11.23, 2.1.x before2.1.11, and 2.2.x before 2.2.4. If django.utils.text.Truncator's chars()and words() methods were passed the html=True argument, they were extremelyslow to evaluate certain inputs due to a catastrophic backtrackingvulnerability in a regular expression. The chars() and words() methods areused to implement the truncatechars_html and truncatewords_html templatefilters, which were thus vulnerable.
