This may be an issue with the python3 xmltodict module. Further testing indicates that parsing a file with just xml.parsers.expat is working just fine.

This is on a bionic server. The parsing is being done by python3's xmltodict module, which uses python3 expat as the actual parser. This is the error it raises: xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: out of memory: line 1, column 0 So far this is happening on multiple xml files, although they all come from the same source (these are jenkins config.xml files). I'm working on coming up with a minimal test case which I'll provide once I have it cleaned up of any private data.
