Hi!

This repository bundles an outdated vulnerable copy of Expat 2.1.0. Please update your copy to version 2.2.1 with the latest security fixes. A change log with details is available at https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/blob/master/expat/Changes. If you happen to run into compile errors, please check the post-2.2.1 commits in Git as well. Thank you!

Best
