Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for mistune.
CVE-2026-76098[0]:
| Mistune is a Python Markdown parser with renderers and plugins.
| Versions 3.3.0 through 3.3.2 are vulnerable to DoS through deeply
| nested tokens. HTML rendering creates deeply nested emphasis tokens
| from consecutive asterisk characters, and recursive rendering in
| HTMLRenderer.render_token() can exceed Python's recursion limit and
| raise RecursionError, allowing crafted Markdown to crash a parsing
| process. This issue is fixed in version 3.3.3
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
