Compressing large data is born to be slow and it's highly possible to cause the kernel halt then due to resource limit.
> This may be used to crash python remotely if a server takes user input and runs it through zlib.compress(b'variable' * 2**32) which is not very likely. You probably should set a limit for what you compress and how much it is.
This is the responsibility of application code not library code. |
