CVE-2020-29651
A denial of service via regular expression in the py.path.svnwc component of py (aka python-py) through 1.9.0 could be used by attackers to cause a compute-time denial of service attack by supplying malicious input to the blame functionality.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.66%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
