Slackware Current Repository by Conraid ====================================================================== defusedxml (XML bomb protection for Python stdlib modules) The results of an attack on a vulnerable XML library can be fairly dramatic. With just a few hundred Bytes of XML data an attacker can occupy several Gigabytes of memory within seconds. An attacker can also keep CPUs busy for a long time with a small to medium size request. Under some circumstances it is even possible to access local files on your server, to circumvent a firewall, or to abuse services to rebound attacks to third parties. This library allows for XML to be parsed in a manner that avoids these pitfalls. HOME: https://github.com/tiran/defusedxml ======================================================================
