+Django 1.4.7 release notes
+==========================
+
+*September 10, 2013*
+
+Django 1.4.7 fixes one security issue present in previous Django releases in
+the 1.4 series.
+
+Directory traversal vulnerability in :ttag:`ssi` template tag
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+
+In previous versions of Django it was possible to bypass the
+:setting:`ALLOWED_INCLUDE_ROOTS` setting used for security with the :ttag:`ssi`
+template tag by specifying a relative path that starts with one of the allowed
+roots. For example, if ``ALLOWED_INCLUDE_ROOTS = ("/var/www",)`` the following
+would be possible:
+
+.. code-block:: html+django
+
+    {% ssi "/var/www/../../etc/passwd" %}
+
+In practice this is not a very common problem, as it would require the template
+author to put the :ttag:`ssi` file in a user-controlled variable, but it's
+possible in principle.
