In libexpat through 2.7.3, a crafted file with an approximate size of 2 MiB can lead to dozens of seconds of processing time.

Weakness

An algorithm in a product has an inefficient worst-case computational complexity that may be detrimental to system performance and can be triggered by an attacker, typically using crafted manipulations that ensure that the worst case is being reached.
