Overview

github.com/hashicorp/nomad is a workload orchestrator that can deploy a mix of microservice, batch, containerized, and non-containerized applications.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data (Data Amplification) due to missing decompression limits, such that using a maliciously compressed artifact stanza source can cause excessive disk usage.
