NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bzip2 package and not the bzip2 package as distributed by Centos.

A flaw was found in Bombastic, which allows authenticated users to upload compressed (bzip2 or zstd) SBOMs. The API endpoint verifies the presence of some fields and values in the JSON. To perform this verification, the uploaded file must first be decompressed.
