PYSEC-2026-2776 Open Babel has out-of-bounds write (overlapping memcpy) in zipstream basic_unzip_streambuf::underflow

Summary A memory-safety vulnerability in Open Babel's bundled zipstream decompression code caused an out-of-bounds write via overlapping memcpy when reading a crafted gzip-compressed chemistry file. Details The flaw was in basicunzipstreambuf::underflow. The decompression buffer refill path invok...

PYSEC-2026-3389 tornado AsyncHTTPClient accumulates decompressed chunks without size limit (gzip bomb)

Tornado's gzip decompression routines work in limited-size chunks, but have no overall limit for the total size of decompressed chunks that they will accumulate There has always been a limit for the total compressed size. This allows a malicious server to consume effectively unlimited amounts of...

httplib2 is a comprehensive HTTP client library for Python. Prior to 0.32.0, httplib2 performs unbounded decompression of HTTP response bodies encoded with Content-Encoding: gzip or deflate in decompressContent in httplib2/init.py, allowing a malicious or compromised HTTP server to return a small...

Tesla has decompression bomb on response body

Summary Any Tesla client pipeline that includes Tesla.Middleware.DecompressResponse or Tesla.Middleware.Compression eagerly decompresses HTTP response bodies with no size limit. A server under attacker control or reached via a redirect can return a tiny gzip-encoded payload that expands into...

CVE-2026-59873

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...
