Description

I wrote some of the code to do this in a branch https://github.com/python-security/pyt/compare/class_based_views, but since I'm working on other things and this feature seems cool and important I'm making this issue 👍

Let me know if you would like any help in implementing.

Research direction
Review the existing branch at https://github.com/python security/pyt/compare/class based views for partial implementation of class based views support. Understand how pyt handles function based views and extend the analysis to class based views. Examine the structure of class based views in Python web frameworks and adapt the existing security checks. Ensure the new code integrates with the existing flow and passes tests.
