==========================
Django 1.9.8 release notes
==========================
*July 18, 2016*
Django 1.9.8 fixes a security issue and several bugs in 1.9.7.
XSS in admin's add/change related popup
=======================================
Unsafe usage of JavaScript's ``Element.innerHTML`` could result in XSS in the
admin's add/change related popup. ``Element.textContent`` is now used to
prevent execution of the data.
The debug view also used ``innerHTML``. Although a security issue wasn't
identified there, out of an abundance of caution it's also updated to use
``textContent``.
Bugfixes
========
* Fixed missing ``varchar/text_pattern_ops`` index on ``CharField`` and
``TextField`` respectively when using ``AddField`` on PostgreSQL
(:ticket:`26889`).
* Fixed ``makemessages`` crash on Python 2 with non-ASCII file names
(:ticket:`26897`).
