Summary: Django Allows Redirect via Data URL

Details: The (1) `django.http.HttpResponseRedirect` and (2) `django.http.HttpResponsePermanentRedirect` classes in Django before 1.3.2 and 1.4.x before 1.4.1 do not validate the scheme of a redirect target, which might allow remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a `data:` URL.
