CVE-2018-1324: Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

March 14, 2019 (updated November 2, 2023)

A specially crafted ZIP archive can be used to cause an infinite loop inside of Apache Commons Compress’ extra field parser used by the ZipFile and ZipArchiveInputStream classes in versions 1.11 to 1.15. This can be used to mount a denial of service attack against services that use Compress’ zip package.
