description

Rust zip releases before 9.0.0 can terminate an application while extracting a crafted ZIP archive whose entry is marked as a symbolic link. An attacker must be able to supply an archive that the application extracts on Unix or Windows.

mitigation

Update the Rust zip package to version 9.0.0 or later. Until updated, do not extract ZIP archives from untrusted sources in the affected process.

fixed in 9.0.0
