OWSLib is a Python package for client programming with Open Geospatial
Consortium (OGC) web service interface standards, and their related content
models. OWSLib’s XML parser (which supports both lxml and xml.etree)
does not disable entity resolution, and could lead to arbitrary file reads
from an attacker-controlled XML payload. This affects all XML parsing in
the codebase. This issue has been addressed in version 0.28.1. All users
are advised to upgrade. The only known workaround is to patch the library
manually. See GHSA-8h9c-r582-mggc for details.
