I'm leaning toward closing this for a couple reasons: * Setting a depth limit of something like 10 would still be vulnerable to billion-laughs style attacks. * The issues that a depth limit would help prevent have already been fixed through other strategies. * Adding a depth limit to this particular code is really pushing its complexity to a point where nobody can reasonably continue maintaining it. Do you have a test or demo that could show what a depth limit of 10 (or any arbitrary depth limit) would help solve that the current implementation can't handle? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
