Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2021-04-26 21:32:03 UTC
CVE-2021-20291 (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-20291):
  A deadlock vulnerability was found in 'github.com/containers/storage' in
  versions before 1.28.1. When a container image is processed, each layer is
  unpacked using `tar`. If one of those layers is not a valid `tar` archive
  this causes an error leading to an unexpected situation where the code
  indefinitely waits for the tar unpacked stream, which never finishes. An
  attacker could use this vulnerability to craft a malicious image, which when
  downloaded and stored by an application using containers/storage, would then
  cause a deadlock leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
