Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to NULL Pointer Dereference in the CreateCustomVolumeFromBackup process. An attacker can cause the incusd daemon to crash by uploading a crafted backup tarball with a volume_snapshots[*].expires_at field omitted, leading to a nil pointer dereference when the field is accessed. This is only exploitable if the attacker is an authenticated user with the can_create_storage_volumes permission on any project.
