"text": "This issue is Important rather than Critical because, while it allows for significant resource exhaustion leading to denial-of-service (DoS), it does not enable arbitrary code execution, data leakage, or privilege escalation. The vulnerability stems from an uncontrolled memory amplification behavior in libexpat\u2019s parser, where a relatively small XML payload can cause disproportionately large heap allocations. However, the flaw is limited in scope to service disruption and requires the attacker to submit a crafted XML document\u2014something that can be mitigated with proper input validation and memory usage limits. Therefore, while the exploitability is high, the impact is confined to availability, not confidentiality or integrity, making it a high-severity but not critical flaw.\n\nIn Firefox and Thunderbird, where libexpat is a transitive userspace dependency, exploitation usually just crashes the application (app-level DoS), so it is classify as Moderate instead of Important.",
