Humberto Diogenes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: This was solved in Python 3.0: http.server now uses email.parser (issue2848), which is not vulnerable to the DoS attack mentioned by Nick.
Should we backport these changes to 2.6? As HTTPMessage's base class was changed to email.message, additional work would be necessary to maintain API compatibility (ie.: implementing an interface similar to mimetools.Message in HTTPMessage). ---------- nosy: +hdiogenes _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1180470> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
