description
libexpat 2.7.2 through 2.9.0 is affected by a parser-reset memory-accounting flaw. An attacker who can supply a large XML document to a parser instance that is later reset and reused can make subsequent documents fail to parse until that parser is recreated.
mitigation
Do not reuse parser instances after they process untrusted large XML documents; recreate the parser before handling subsequent documents. Monitor for and apply an upstream libexpat update when one is released.
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
