| summary: Unbounded allocation when parsing GNU sparse map in archive/tar |
| description: |- |
| tar.Reader does not set a maximum size on the number of sparse region data |
| blocks in GNU tar pax 1.0 sparse files. A maliciously-crafted archive containing |
| a large number of sparse regions can cause a Reader to read an unbounded amount |
| of data from the archive into memory. When reading from a compressed source, a |
| small compressed input can result in large allocations. |
