Subject: CVE request: mwlib < 0.13.5 DoS flaw
Could a CVE be assigned to the following please?
It was reported that mwlib suffered from a flaw that could allow a
remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack on a mwlib
installation by forcing it to parse a specially-crafted #iferror magic
function. This has been corrected in upstream version 0.13.5.
