How to fix?

Upgrade Wolfi python-3.11 to version 3.11.15-r9 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-3.11 package and not the python-3.11 package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

The "tarfile" module would still apply normalization of AREGTYPE (\x00) blocks to DIRTYPE, even while processing a multi-block member such as GNUTYPE_LONGNAME or GNUTYPE_LONGLINK. This could result in a crafted tar archive being misinterpreted by the tarfile module compared to other implementations.
