CVE reports:
The updatePosition function in lib/xmltok_impl.c in
libexpat in Expat 2.0.1, as used in Python, PyXML,
w3c-libwww, and other software, allows context-dependent
attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash)
via an XML document with crafted UTF-8 sequences that
trigger a buffer over-read.
