Summary
Mistune block_parser: quadratic-time parsing on long lists of repeated reference-link definitions
Details

Mistune is a Python Markdown parser with renderers and plugins. Prior to 3.3.0, a Markdown document containing many repeated or distinct reference-link definitions causes quadratic work in src/mistune/blockparser.py and the reflinks environment dictionary handling, allowing denial of service through CPU exhaustion. This issue is fixed in version 3.3.0.
