Description

A flaw was found in Python. Its incremental HTML parser can be exploited by a remote attacker. By sending specially crafted, uncontrolled data with repeated, incomplete markup declarations, the attacker can cause the system to consume excessive central processing unit (CPU) resources. This leads to a denial of service, making the affected system unresponsive.
