             Summary: Regexp parser should bound cardinality
                 Key: XERCESC-2268
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-2268
             Project: Xerces-C++
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Regular Expressions
    Affects Versions: 3.3.0
            Reporter: Scott Cantor
             Fix For: 3.3.1


The regexp parser doesn't have a cardinality limit applied to expressions, so 
of course a massive value unlikely to be encountered in practice in any schema 
can be impossible to handle in a practical amount of CPU time.

As a quick fix, a compile time limit in a header can be added to bound the 
parser. A more extensive fix would require wider changes and a configuration 
setting in the API.
