Note that this behavior is documented[0]:
The XML data is parsed using the Expat parser from xml.parsers.expat – see its
documentation for possible exceptions on ill-formed XML. Unknown elements will
simply be ignored by the plist parser.
Ned Deily n...@acm.org added the comment:
I agree. If it were important to make plistlib error handling more useful,
using a different parser would be the way to go, I think. In any case, Apple
has deprecated the use of XML plists and moved to a binary plist format that
plistlib does not

I think this was closed prematurely. I would like a core dev to assess this
issue and reject or validate it.

I don't see compelling reasons to wrap ExpatError in ValueError. ExpatError
contains extra diagnostic information such as line and column numbers.

If anything is to be done the patch needs updating. I'd be inclined to close
this as won't fix unless someone can come up with a really compelling reason
to implement it.

Here's a very simple patch, is this the only path for errors from
garbage? I think docs are needed too: if apps catching ExpatError
explicitly, will break.
Not sure if this should actually change, as I don't use plistlib. I
havve nothing against
