晋太元中，武陵人捕鱼为业。缘溪行，忘路之远近。忽逢桃花林，夹岸数百步，中无杂树，芳草鲜美，落英缤纷。渔人甚异之，复前行，欲穷其林。 　　林尽水源，便得一山，山有小口，仿佛若有光。便舍船，从口入。初极狭，才通人。复行数十步，豁然开朗。土地平旷，屋舍俨然，有良田、美池、桑竹之属。阡陌交通，鸡犬相闻。其中往来种作，男女衣着，悉如外人。黄发垂髫，并怡然自乐。 　　见渔人，乃大惊，问所从来。具答之。便要还家，设酒杀鸡作食。村中闻有此人，咸来问讯。自云先世避秦时乱，率妻子邑人来此绝境，不复出焉，遂与外人间隔。问今是何世，乃不知有汉，无论魏晋。此人一一为具言所闻，皆叹惋。余人各复延至其家，皆出酒食。停数日，辞去。此中人语云：“不足为外人道也。”(间隔 一作：隔绝) 　　既出，得其船，便扶向路，处处志之。及郡下，诣太守，说如此。太守即遣人随其往，寻向所志，遂迷，不复得路。 　　南阳刘子骥，高尚士也，闻之，欣然规往。未果，寻病终。后遂无问津者。 .

<p>The XML processing modules are not secure against maliciously constructed data.
An attacker can abuse vulnerabilities for e.g. denial of service attacks, to
access local files, to generate network connections to other machines, or
to or circumvent firewalls. The attacks on XML abuse unfamiliar features
like inline <a class="reference external" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_type_definition">DTD</a> (document type definition) with entities.</p>
<p>The following table gives an overview of the known attacks and if the various
modules are vulnerable to them.</p>

<dl class="docutils">
<dt>billion laughs / exponential entity expansion</dt>
<dd>The <a class="reference external" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billion_laughs">Billion Laughs</a> attack – also known as exponential entity expansion –
uses multiple levels of nested entities. Each entity refers to another entity
several times, the final entity definition contains a small string. Eventually
the small string is expanded to several gigabytes. The exponential expansion
consumes lots of CPU time, too.</dd>
<dt>quadratic blowup entity expansion</dt>
<dd>A quadratic blowup attack is similar to a <a class="reference external" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billion_laughs">Billion Laughs</a> attack; it abuses
entity expansion, too. Instead of nested entities it repeats one large entity
with a couple of thousand chars over and over again. The attack isn’t as
efficient as the exponential case but it avoids triggering countermeasures of
parsers against heavily nested entities.</dd>
<dt>external entity expansion</dt>
<dd>Entity declarations can contain more than just text for replacement. They can
also point to external resources by public identifiers or system identifiers.
System identifiers are standard URIs or can refer to local files. The XML
parser retrieves the resource with e.g. HTTP or FTP requests and embeds the
content into the XML document.</dd>
<dt><a class="reference external" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_type_definition">DTD</a> retrieval</dt>
<dd>Some XML libraries like Python’s <a class="reference internal" href="xml.dom.pulldom.html#module-xml.dom.pulldom" title="xml.dom.pulldom: Support for building partial DOM trees from SAX events."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">xml.dom.pulldom</span></code></a> retrieve document type
definitions from remote or local locations. The feature has similar
implications as the external entity expansion issue.</dd>
<dt>decompression bomb</dt>
<dd>The issue of decompression bombs (aka <a class="reference external" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_bomb">ZIP bomb</a>) apply to all XML libraries
that can parse compressed XML stream like gzipped HTTP streams or LZMA-ed
files. For an attacker it can reduce the amount of transmitted data by three
magnitudes or more.</dd>
</dl>
<p>The documentation of <a class="reference external" href="https://pypi.org/project/defusedxml/">defusedxml</a> on PyPI has further information about
all known attack vectors with examples and references.</p>
<div class="section" id="defused-packages">
<h2>19.6.1. defused packages<a class="headerlink" href="#defused-packages" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>These external packages are recommended for any code that parses
untrusted XML data.</p>
<p><a class="reference external" href="https://pypi.org/project/defusedxml/">defusedxml</a> is a pure Python package with modified subclasses of all stdlib
XML parsers that prevent any potentially malicious operation. The
package also ships with example exploits and extended documentation on more
XML exploits like xpath injection.</p>
<p><a class="reference external" href="https://pypi.org/project/defusedexpat/">defusedexpat</a> provides a modified libexpat and patched replacement
<code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pyexpat</span></code> extension module with countermeasures against entity expansion
DoS attacks. Defusedexpat still allows a sane and configurable amount of entity
expansions. The modifications will be merged into future releases of Python.</p>
<p>The workarounds and modifications are not included in patch releases as they
break backward compatibility. After all inline DTD and entity expansion are
well-defined XML features.</p>
