CVE-2026-44740: go-billy: Lack of depth and cycle detection in symlink resolution may lead to infinite loops and resource exhaustion

Multiple components may improperly handle crafted or malformed input, resulting in panics, infinite loops, uncontrolled recursion, or excessive resource consumption.

These issues arise from insufficient validation and missing safety mechanisms such as cycle detection, recursion limits, or defensive handling of unexpected states when processing untrusted repository data and filesystem structures.
