lxml is a Pythonic, mature binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries. It provides safe and convenient access to these libraries using the ElementTree API.

It extends the ElementTree API significantly to offer support for XPath, RelaxNG, XML Schema, XSLT, C14N and much more.

To contact the project, go to the project home page or see our bug tracker at https://launchpad.net/lxml

In case you want to use the current in-development version of lxml, you can get it from the github repository at https://github.com/lxml/lxml . Note that this requires Cython to build the sources, see the build instructions on the project home page.

After an official release of a new stable series, bug fixes may become available at https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tree/lxml-6.1 . Running pip install https://github.com/lxml/lxml/archive/refs/heads/lxml-6.1.tar.gz will install the unreleased branch state as soon as a maintenance branch has been established. Note that this requires Cython to be installed at an appropriate version for the build.

6.1.0 (2026-04-17)

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.
