CVE-2026-6100 Use-after-free in lzma.LZMADecompressor, bz2.BZ2Decompressor, and gzip.GzipFile after re-use under memory pressure

Use-after-free UAF was possible in the lzma.LZMADecompressor, bz2.BZ2Decompressor, and gzip.GzipFile when a memory allocation fails with a MemoryError and the decompression instance is re-used. This scenario can be triggered if the process is under memory pressure. The fix cleans up the dangling...

CVE-2026-39414

CVE-2026-39414 affects MinIO’s S3 Select CSV parsing. The CSV reader’s nextSplit() calls ReadBytes('\n') without a size limit, causing unbounded buffering and memory exhaustion (OOM) when processing long lines; a file with no newline can trigger a single large allocation. This can be exploited by...

JLSEC-2026-61

An arbitrary file write vulnerability was found in GNU gzip's zgrep utility. When zgrep is applied on the attacker's chosen file name for example, a crafted file name, this can overwrite an attacker's content to an arbitrary attacker-selected file. This flaw occurs due to insufficient validation...
