This could make it easy to conduct denial of service attacks against Expat by constructing an XML document that would cause pathological hash collisions in Expat&#39;s internal data structures, consuming large amounts CPU and RAM. The vulnerability exists in Python versions 3.7.0, 3.6.0 through 3.6.6, 3.5.0 through 3.5.6, 3.4.0 through 3.4.9, 2.7.0 through 2.7.15.</p> <p><strong>Affected:</strong> The Python Project Python</p> <p>Python&#39;s elementtree C accelerator failed to initialise Expat&#39;s hash salt during initialization.
