      <title>CVE-2026-115909 — zip: Unbounded Symlink-Target Handling Can Abort Or Exhaust Memory During Extraction</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-115909</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; zip-rs zip2&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;zip is a zip library for Rust that supports reading and writing simple ZIP files. From 1.3.0 until 9.0.0, ZipArchive::extract in src/read/mod.rs calls Vec::with_capacity for a symbolic link target using the attacker-controlled ZIP64 uncompressed_size before reading entry data. A small archive can request an impossible capacity, causing the infallible allocation path to abort the process before the entry is validated. The failure cannot be contained with catch_unwind or a worker thread, allowing repeated denial of service in archive-processing applications. This issue is fixed in version 9.0.0.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GHSA-q7v9-x93c-xqv3 — zip: Unbounded Symlink-Target Handling Can Abort Or Exhaust Memory During Extraction</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/ghsa-q7v9-x93c-xqv3</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; crates.io: zip&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Summary&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The symbolic-link branch of `ZipArchive::extract_internal()` allocates a buffer using an attacker-declared size before reading any entry data. A 112-byte archive terminates the extracting process with `SIGABRT` through this infallible allocation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Details&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;```rust
#[cfg(any(unix, windows))]
if file.is_symlink() {
    let mut target = Vec::with_capacity(file.size() as usize); // @audit unbounded memory allocation
    file.read_to_end(&amp;amp;mut target)?;
    drop(file);
    make_symlink(&amp;amp;outpath, &amp;amp;target, &amp;amp;self.shared.files)?;
    continue;
}
```&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[`src/read/mod.rs#L399-L405`](https://github.com/zip-rs/zip2/blob/6f09b3064ec87c3a69ea9f3413f9f9638b4aa446/src/read/mod.rs#L399-L405) (reviewed commit `6f09b306`); the same code is at [`src/read.rs#L417-L418`](https://github.com/zip-rs/zip2/blob/v8.6.0/src/read.rs#L417-L418) in released v8.6.0.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Both inputs are attacker-controlled:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- [`ZipFile::size()`](https://github.com/zip-rs/zip2/blob/6f09b3064ec87c3a69ea9f3413f9f9638b4aa446/src/read/zipfile.rs#L243-L246) returns `uncompressed_size` verbatim from the central directory record. A ZIP64 extended-information extra field widens it to a full `u64` ([`src/read/mod.rs#L619-L625`](https://github.com/zip-rs/zip2/blob/6f09b3064ec87c3a69ea9f3413f9f9638b4aa446/src/read/mod.rs#L619-L625)). It is never cross-checked against the compressed size, the remaining archive length, or any platform-appropriate bound for a symlink target.
