  - zlib through 1.2.12 has a heap-based buffer over-read or buffer overflow in inflate in inflate.c via a
    large gzip header extra field. NOTE: only applications that call inflateGetHeader are affected. Some
    common applications bundle the affected zlib source code but May be unable to call inflateGetHeader (e.g.,
    see the nodejs/node reference). (CVE-2022-37434)
