+        django-ckeditor bundles CKEditor 4.22.1 which isn’t supported anmyore and
+        which does have unfixed security issues
+
+        Existing users of django-ckeditor should consider switching to a
+        different editor such as CKEditor 5 (django-ckeditor-5), after verifying
+        that its GPL licensing terms are acceptable, or ProseMirror
+        (django-prose-mirror by the author of django-ckeditor). Support of the
+        CKEditor 4 package is provided by its upstream developers as a
+        non-free/commercial LTS package until December 2028.
+
+        Note that while there are publically known vulnerabilities for the
+        CKEditor 4 series, the exploitability of these issues depends on how
+        CKEditor is used by the given Django application.
