Summary : XML bomb protection for Python stdlib modules
Description :
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.
This library allows for XML to be parsed in a manner that avoids these
pitfalls.
