     77After review, we've determined that the reported issue only affects workflows that process user input without sanitization. As documented at [0]:
     78
     79"Reports based on a failure to sanitize user input are not valid security vulnerabilities. It is the developer’s responsibility to properly handle user input."
     80
     81In this case, the behavior described relies on passing unbounded, unvalidated user input to helper functions such as `slugify` and `normalize_username`, which are not intended to operate on raw user input. Because of this, the behavior you reported is not considered a security issue within the Django project.
