python-defusedxml - 0.5.0-2 main

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.
.
This package contains the module for the Python 2 interpreter.
