Regular expression denial of service in Pydanic < 2.4.0, < 1.10.13 allows remote attackers to cause denial of service via a crafted email string.
The product uses a regular expression with an inefficient, possibly exponential worst-case computational complexity that consumes excessive CPU cycles.

Attackers can create crafted inputs that
intentionally cause the regular expression to use
excessive backtracking in a way that causes the CPU
consumption to spike.
