    Summary: Uncontrolled recursion leads to abort in HTML serialization

    Details: Affected versions of this crate did use recursion for serialization of HTML DOM trees. This allows an attacker to cause abort due to stack overflow by providing a pathologically nested input. The flaw was corrected by serializing the DOM tree iteratively instead.
