Public bug reported:
I started seeing errors parsing XML files today (Feb 22, 2022) after my
system was updated to 2.2.5-3ubuntu0.4. This is on a bionic server.
The parsing is being done by python3's xmltodict module, which uses
python3 expat as the actual parser. This is the error it raises:
xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: out of memory: line 1, column 0
So far this is happening on multiple xml files, although they all come
from the same source (these are jenkins config.xml files). I'm working
on coming up with a minimal test case which I'll provide once I have it
cleaned up of any private data.
