How to fix?

Upgrade ParquetSharp to version 23.0.0.1 or higher.

Overview

ParquetSharp is a .NET library for reading and writing Parquet files.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Memory Allocation with Excessive Size Value in the DecimalConverter.ReadDecimal() function. An attacker can cause a large stackalloc by supplying a Parquet file with a decimal column of excessively large width, leading to a stack overflow. In a service environment, this can crash the service.
