NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream buildah-tests package and not the buildah-tests package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

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.
