Details

As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).

Python-cjson 1.0.5 does not properly handle a ['/'] argument to cjson.encode, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct certain cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks involving Firefox and the end tag of a SCRIPT element.
