How to fix?

Upgrade github.com/helm/helm/pkg/chartutil to version 3.10.3 or higher.

Overview

github.com/helm/helm/pkg/chartutil is a package manager for kubernetes.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to NULL Pointer Dereference due to accepting input to functions that can cause a segmentation violation. Some schema files can cause array data structures to be created causing a memory violation.

Workaround

SDK users can validate schema files that are correctly formatted before passing them to the chartutil functions.
