github.com/containers/podman is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS). The vulnerability is due to the failure to properly clean up IPC resources created by malicious containers in /dev/shm, which can exhaust system memory and lead to a system outage and potentially leading to a memory-based denial of service when the system is unable to handle the increased resource usage.
