Denial Of Service (DoS)

Python is vulnerable to denial of service attacks. Remote unauthenticated attackers could exploit the vulnerable Elementtree C Accelerator component by constructing an XML document that would cause pathological hash collisions in Expat's internal data structures, consuming large amounts CPU and R...

python: Missing salt initialization in _elementtree.c module

Python's elementtree C accelerator failed to initialise Expat's hash salt during initialization. This could make it easy to conduct denial of service attacks against Expat by contructing an XML document that would cause pathological hash collisions in Expat's internal data structures, consuming...
