Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow or Wraparound in the WithUser() function, when handling large User ID values. If a UID:GID value provided is larger than MaxInt32, it can overflow to 0 and be treated as root. This allows a user to escalate privileges on the system in which the container is running.
