tar: Node-tar: Denial of Service via malformed tar archive header

A flaw was found in node-tar, a tar archive manipulation library for Node.js. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted tar archive with a negative entry size in its header. This malformed header causes the archive scanner to enter an infinite loop,...

tar: node-tar: Denial of Service via crafted gzip bomb

A flaw was found in node-tar, a tar archive manipulation library for Node.js. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to craft a small gzip bomb, which, when processed, can lead to the exhaustion of disk space and CPU resources. This occurs because node-tar does not enforce strict limits on t...

GHSA-W8WR-V893-VJVP node-tar: Process crash via PAX numeric path type confusion

Summary A crafted 2.5KB tar archive crashes any Node.js process that extracts it. The PAX header parser coerces all-digit path values to JavaScript numbers, which causes an uncaught TypeError when downstream code calls .split'/' on the numeric value. Error handlers and strict: false cannot...

node-tar: Decompression/parse DoS via unlimited input

Summary A Decompression/parse DoS via unlimited input vulnerability in node-tar allows an attacker to exhaust server resources disk space and CPU. Because the library does not enforce hard upper bounds on total decompressed data or entry counts, a small, maliciously crafted "Gzip Bomb" can be use...
