| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in httplib2, a Python HTTP client library. This vulnerability allows a malicious or compromised HTTP server to send a small compressed data payload that, when decompressed by httplib2, expands to an extremely large size in memory. This unbounded decompression can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) by causing the client application to run out of memory and crash.
