We couldn't find a bugs.python.org (b.p.o) account corresponding to the following GitHub usernames:

This might be simply due to a missing "GitHub Name" entry in one's b.p.o account settings. This is necessary for legal reasons before we can look at this contribution. Please follow the steps outlined in the CPython devguide to rectify this issue.

You can check yourself to see if the CLA has been received.

Thanks again for the contribution, we look forward to reviewing it!

The issue is reported under https://bugs.python.org/issue34480. You might want to prepend the issue number as per the required format to link this PR. The issue discusses the usage of self.error to raise an exception. This needs a test case. Something like creating a custom subclass of HTMLParser and feed it with "<![nonexistent>" that triggers this and the fix needs to be approved by core dev in the linked issue discussion. Thanks.
