bugbot adjusting priority
In the context of SUSE Cloud we always use postgresql, but from reading postgresql docs, it also does some implicit type conversions. So to be on the safe side, we should add the patch or upgrade from 1.4.8 to 1.4.11
err. 1.4.8 was in Cloud 2.0 which is nearly EOL for Cloud 3+ it is django-1.5.4 to 1.5.8 which includes at least 5 security fixes with hardly any other changes (apart from doc fixes)
Issue is handled in SWAMP 57105
Reassigning to security team as fix was submitted.
