Found In Version: 10.23.30.1
Severity: Standard

Description

A vulnerability has been identified in the libarchive library. This flaw can lead to a heap b
uffer over-read due to the size of a filter block potentially exceeding the Lempel-Ziv-Storer
-Schieber (LZSS) window. This means the library may attempt to read beyond the allocated memo
ry buffer, which can result in unpredictable program behavior, crashes (denial of service), o
r the disclosure of sensitive information from adjacent memory regions.
