CVE-2026-59874

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,...

CVE-2026-59874

node-tar is a tar archive manipulation library for Node.js. Prior to 7.5.18, tar.replace accepts a checksum-valid tar header with a negative base-256 encoded entry size, causing the archive scanner to make no progress while repeatedly parsing the same header. This issue is fixed in version 7.5.18...

CVE-2026-9538

CVE-2026-9538 affects Archive::Tar prior to 3.10 for Perl. A crafted tar header can set a multi‑gigabyte size, causing _read_tar() to allocate a scalar of that size, leading to memory exhaustion. The vulnerability arises from reading entry payloads with a size block derived from the header withou...
