| Applications that use the repo package in the Helm SDK to parse an index |
| file can suffer a Denial of Service when that input causes a panic that |
| cannot be recovered from. |
| The repo package contains a handler that processes the index file of a |
| repository. For example, the Helm client adds references to chart |
| repositories where charts are managed. The repo package parses the index |
| file of the repository and loads it into memory. Some index files can cause |
| array data structures to be created causing a memory violation. |
| The Helm Client will panic with an index file that causes a memory |
| violation panic. Helm is not a long running service so the panic will not |
| affect future uses of the Helm client. |
