Title
Unbounded memory consumption when reading headers in archive/tar
Summary
Reader.Read does not set a limit on the maximum size of file headers. A maliciously crafted archive could cause Read to allocate unbounded amounts of memory, potentially causing resource exhaustion or panics. After fix, Reader.Read limits the maximum size of header blocks to 1 MiB.
Severity
No CVSS data available.

VLAI
Title
Unbounded memory consumption when reading headers in archive/tar
Summary
Reader.Read does not set a limit on the maximum size of file headers. A maliciously crafted archive could cause Read to allocate unbounded amounts of memory, potentially causing resource exhaustion or panics. After fix, Reader.Read limits the maximum size of header blocks to 1 MiB.
Severity
No CVSS data available.
CWE
