How to fix?

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in the UploadAllFiles function during S3 restore operations when processing tar headers from a supplied backup archive. An attacker can cause the daemon to crash and disrupt the control plane API by importing a crafted backup archive containing a tar entry with a header name shorter than the expected prefix, which triggers a runtime panic due to unchecked string slicing.
