Release Notes

lxml/lxml (lxml)

v6.1.1

Compare Source

==================

Bugs fixed

• The known link attributes in lxml.html.defs.link_attrs were missing xlink:href,
  which can be used for URL bypass attacks in embedded SVG/MathML/etc. content.
  GHSA-4jhm-jv67-739f

• The Linux wheels use a patched libxslt 1.1.43, fixing CVE-2025-7424 and CVE-2025-11731.

• The Windows wheels use libxslt 1.1.45, fixing CVE-2025-7424 and CVE-2025-11731.

v6.1.0

Compare Source

==================

This release fixes a possible external entity injection (XXE) vulnerability in
iterparse() and the ETCompatXMLParser.

Features added

• GH#486: The HTML ARIA accessibility attributes were added to the set of safe attributes
  in lxml.html.defs. This allows lxml_html_clean to pass them through.
  Patch by oomsveta.

• The default chunk size for reading from file-likes in iterparse() is now configurable
  with a new chunk_size argument.

Bugs fixed

• LP#2146291: The resolve_entities option was still set to True for
  iterparse and ETCompatXMLParser, allowing for external entity injection (XXE)
  when using these parsers without setting this option explicitly.
  The default was now changed to 'internal' only (as for the normal XML and HTML parsers
  since lxml 5.0).
  Issue found by Sihao Qiu as CVE-2026-41066.

v6.0.4

Compare Source

==================

Bugs fixed

• LP#2148019: Spurious MemoryError during namespace cleanup.

v6.0.3

Compare Source

==================

Bugs fixed

• Several out of memory error cases now raise MemoryError that were not handled before.

• Slicing with large step values (outside of +/- sys.maxsize) could trigger undefined C behaviour.

• LP#2125399: Some failing tests were fixed or disabled in PyPy.

• LP#2138421: Memory leak in error cases when setting the public_id or system_url of a document.

• Memory leak in case of a memory allocation failure when copying document subtrees.

• When mapping an XPath result to Python failed, the result memory could leak.

• When preparing an XSLT transform failed, the XSLT parameter memory could leak.

Other changes

• Built using Cython 3.2.4.

• Binary wheels use zlib 1.3.2.

v6.0.2

Compare Source

==================

Bugs fixed

• LP#2125278: Compilation with libxml2 2.15.0 failed.
  Original patch by Xi Ruoyao.

• Setting decompress=True in the parser had no effect in libxml2 2.15.

• Binary wheels on Linux and macOS use the library version libxml2 2.14.6.
  See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/releases/v2.14.6

• Test failures in libxml2 2.15.0 were fixed.

Other changes

• Binary wheels for Py3.9-3.11 on the riscv64 architecture were added.

• Error constants were updated to match libxml2 2.15.0.

• Built using Cython 3.1.4.

v6.0.1

Compare Source

==================

Bugs fixed

• LP#2116333: lxml.sax._getNsTag() could fail with an exception on malformed input.

• GH#467: Some test adaptations were made for libxml2 2.15.
  Patch by Nick Wellnhofer.

• LP2119510, GH#473: A Python compatibility test was fixed for Python 3.14+.
  Patch by Lumír Balhar.

• GH#471: Wheels for "riscv64" on recent Python versions were added.
  Patch by ffgan.

• GH#469: The wheel build no longer requires the wheel package unconditionally.
  Patch by Miro Hrončok.

• Binary wheels use the library version libxml2 2.14.5.
  See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/releases/v2.14.5

• Windows binary wheels continue to use a security patched library version libxml2 2.11.9.

v6.0.0

Compare Source

==================

Features added

• GH#463: lxml.html.diff is faster and provides structurally better diffs.
  Original patch by Steven Fernandez.

• GH#405: The factories Element and ElementTree can now be used in type hints.

• GH#448: Parsing from memoryview and other buffers is supported to allow zero-copy parsing.

• GH#437: lxml.html.builder was missing several HTML5 tag names.
  Patch by Nick Tarleton.

• GH#458: CDATA can now be written into the incremental xmlfile() writer.
  Original patch by Lane Shaw.

• A new parser option decompress=False was added that controls the automatic
  input decompression when using libxml2 2.15.0 or later. Disabling this option
  by default will effectively prevent decompression bombs when handling untrusted
  input. Code that depends on automatic decompression must enable this option.
  Note that libxml2 2.15.0 was not released yet, so this option currently has no
  effect but can already be used.

• The set of compile time / runtime supported libxml2 feature names is available as
  etree.LIBXML_COMPILED_FEATURES and etree.LIBXML_FEATURES.
  This currently includes
  catalog, ftp, html, http, iconv, icu,
  lzma, regexp, schematron, xmlschema, xpath, zlib.

Bugs fixed

• GH#353: Predicates in .find*() could mishandle tag indices if a default namespace is provided.
  Original patch by Luise K.

• GH#272: The head and body properties of lxml.html elements failed if no such element
  was found. They now return None instead.
  Original patch by FVolral.

• Tag names provided by code (API, not data) that are longer than INT_MAX
  could be truncated or mishandled in other ways.

• .text_content() on lxml.html elements accidentally returned a "smart string"
  without additional information. It now returns a plain string.

• LP#2109931: When building lxml with coverage reporting, it now disables the sys.monitoring
  support due to the lack of support in nedbat/coveragepy#1790

Other changes

• Support for Python < 3.8 was removed.

• Parsing directly from zlib (or lzma) compressed data is now considered an optional
  feature in lxml. It may get removed from libxml2 at some point for security reasons
  (compression bombs) and is therefore no longer guaranteed to be available in lxml.

  As of this release, zlib support is still normally available in the binary wheels
  but may get disabled or removed in later (x.y.0) releases. To test the availability,
  use "zlib" in etree.LIBXML_FEATURES.

• The Schematron class is deprecated and will become non-functional in a future lxml version.
  The feature will soon be removed from libxml2 and stop being available.

• GH#438: Wheels include the arm7l target.

• GH#465: Windows wheels include the arm64 target.
  Patch by Finn Womack.

• Binary wheels use the library versions libxml2 2.14.4 and libxslt 1.1.43.
  Note that this disables direct HTTP and FTP support for parsing from URLs.
  Use Python URL request tools instead (which usually also support HTTPS).
  To test the availability, use "http" in etree.LIBXML_FEATURES.

• Windows binary wheels use the library versions libxml2 2.11.9, libxslt 1.1.39 and libiconv 1.17.
  They are now based on VS-2022.

• Built using Cython 3.1.2.

• The debug methods MemDebug.dump() and MemDebug.show() were removed completely.
  libxml2 2.13.0 discarded this feature.
