Description Alan Cox 2004-10-08 12:34:36 UTC 
Description of problem:
Neon does not apply a sanity limit to propfind responses.

Neon should apply a limit in order to prevent memory exhaustion by a
hostile DAV server.
Comment 1 Joe Orton 2004-10-13 20:14:09 UTC 
Yes, thanks, known issue.  I'm working towards fixing this for neon
0.25.x.
Comment 2 Joe Orton 2004-10-25 16:17:18 UTC 
This is done for neon 0.25, backporting to 0.24.x is hard because it
requires a couple of API changes to do properly, so it will have to wait.
