I strongly recommend this hilarious, terrifying PyCon talk about
vulnerabilities in yaml, xml, and json processing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjZHjvrAS74

If you process user-submitted data in these formats and don't yet know why
you should be flatly terrified, please watch this ASAP; it's illuminating.
If you *do* know why you should be terrified, watch it anyway and giggle
along in knowing recognition, because the talk is really very funny.
