Fix example direct vulnerability for Python

When a library is specifically referenced in your setup.py, requirements.txt, requirements-dev.txt, or dev-requirements.txt, Veracode SCA refers to the library as a direct dependency.

These example steps provide a fix for a Denial of Service (DoS) Memory Consumption vulnerability in feedparser, version 5.1.1 in the example-python repository.

To complete this task:

  1. Edit the requirements.txt file in the root of the project to match the following:

    feedparser== 5.1.2

  2. Validate the fix.
