CVE-2018-20482

GNU Tar through 1.30, when --sparse is used, mishandles file shrinkage during read access, which allows local users to cause a denial of service infinite read loop in sparsedumpregion in sparse.c by modifying a file that is supposed to be archived by a different user's process e.g., a system back...

The vulnerability of the RubyGems package management system, related to the creation of infinite loops, allows for the execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability of the RubyGems package management system is related to improper handling of the tar archive header, which can lead to the creation of an infinite loop. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a service failure...
