3) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-8194)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in the “tarfile” module when handling tar archives with negative offsets. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted tar archive to the application and consume all available system resources, resulting in a deadlock and a denial of service.
