  - CVE-2024-6232: Regular expressions that allowed excessive backtracking during tarfile.TarFile
  header parsing are vulnerable to ReDoS via specifically-crafted tar archives.

  - CVE-2024-7592: When parsing cookies that contained backslashes for quoted characters in the
  cookie value, the parser would use an algorithm with quadratic complexity, resulting in excess
  CPU resources being used while parsing the value.

  - CVE-2024-8088: When iterating over names of entries in a zip archive (for example, methods of
  'zipfile.Path' like 'namelist()', 'iterdir()', etc) the process can be put into an infinite loop
  with a maliciously crafted zip archive. This defect applies when reading only metadata or
  extracting the contents of the zip archive.This vulnerability only affects zipfile.Path, while the
  more common API zipfile.ZipFile class is unaffected.

  - CVE-2024-45490, CVE-2024-45491, CVE-2024-45492: Vulnerabilities in libexpat prior to version
