>             Project: Xerces-C++
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Regular Expressions
>    Affects Versions: 3.3.0
>            Reporter: Scott Cantor

>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 3.3.1

> The regexp parser doesn't have a cardinality limit applied to expressions, so of course a massive value unlikely to be encountered in practice in any schema can be impossible to handle in a practical amount of CPU time.
> As a quick fix, a compile time limit in a header can be added to bound the parser. A more extensive fix would require wider changes and a configuration setting in the API.
