Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in the walkCB, walkCB2, walkCBSync, and walkCB2Sync methods of src/walker.ts, where each abort branch calls cb() without returning. An attacker can keep a walk consuming filesystem I/O and CPU after it has already been aborted, by driving a traversal that the caller tries to bound, because execution continues past the abort into processPatterns(), readdirCB(), and recursive walkCB2() calls. This affects only callers that rely on the signal option or AbortSignal.timeout() to cancel a walk, and applies to both glob() and globStream().
