A flaw was found in ISAACS’s node-tar, where it is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the lack of folder count validation. The vulnerability exists due to the application not properly controlling the consumption of internal resources while parsing a tar file. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
