- Apply the patch or update to a version of djangoSIGE that is not vulnerable
- Implement additional monitoring to detect and respond to potential exploitation attempts
- Consider implementing compensating controls such as rate limiting on the password reset endpoint
- Review and update incident response plans to include potential user enumeration attacks
- Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
- Review the supplied official advisory or CVE record to validate affected scope, severity, and vendor guidance
- Plan vendor-supported updates or mitigations through normal change control where exposure is confirmed
