Django 1.11.21 fixes a security issue in 1.11.20.
CVE-2019-12308: AdminURLFieldWidget XSS
---------------------------------------
The clickable "Current URL" link generated by ``AdminURLFieldWidget`` displayed
the provided value without validating it as a safe URL. Thus, an unvalidated
value stored in the database, or a value provided as a URL query parameter
payload, could result in an clickable JavaScript link.
``AdminURLFieldWidget`` now validates the provided value using
:class:`~django.core.validators.URLValidator` before displaying the clickable
link. You may customise the validator by passing a ``validator_class`` kwarg to
``AdminURLFieldWidget.__init__()``, e.g. when using
:attr:`~django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.formfield_overrides`.
