Django is vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS). The vulnerability is caused by insufficient input validation when handling very long strings containing specific characters in the django.utils.translation.get_supported_language_variant()
function. This allows an attacker to exploit the function, potentially leading to a DoS condition where the system becomes unresponsive or slows down significantly.
