id: PYSEC-2011-1
details: django.contrib.sessions in Django before 1.2.7 and 1.3.x before 1.3.1, when
  session data is stored in the cache, uses the root namespace for both session identifiers
  and application-data keys, which allows remote attackers to modify a session by
  triggering use of a key that is equal to that session's identifier.
