A ReDoS issue was discovered in pygments/lexers/smithy.py in Pygments until 2.15.0 via SmithyLexer.
A ReDoS issue was discovered in pygments/lexers/smithy.py in pygments through 2.15.0 via SmithyLexer.
The FontManager.getnixfontpath function in formatters/img.py in Pygments 1.2.2 through 2.0.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a font name.
An infinite loop in SMLLexer in Pygments versions 1.5 to 2.7.3 may lead to denial of service when performing syntax highlighting of a Standard ML (SML) source file, as demonstrated by input that only contains the "exception" keyword.
A denial of service attack was discovered against pygments. Some of the regular expressions used to tokenise source code for highlighting have exponential complexity. A specially crafted input file could cause pygments to take effectively infinite time to parse, consuming CPU resources and denying access to the service.
