DescriptionCVE.org

adm-zip versions 0.5.14 through 0.6.0 fail to apply zlib decompression output limits when ZIP entries declare zero uncompressed size. Attackers can craft malicious ZIP archives with highly compressible entries declaring zero size to exhaust memory and cause denial of service.

AnalysisAI

adm-zip 0.5.14 through 0.6.0, a widely used Node.js ZIP library, omits zlib decompression output limits whenever a ZIP entry declares an uncompressed size of zero, letting a tiny crafted archive inflate without bound and exhaust the host process memory. Any service that extracts attacker-supplied archives with an affected version — upload endpoints, import jobs, CI tooling — can be crashed by a few kilobytes of input, with no authentication or user interaction required per the CVSS 4.0 vector (PR:N/UI:N, VA:H only). …
