Zeek · Zeek · CVE-2026-19671
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Malcolm (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
The upload-processing pipeline in `scripts/safe-extract.py` fails to apply entry-count, nesting-depth, and total-uncompressed-byte limits when processing single-stream compressed formats such as .gz, .bz2, .xz, .lzma, and .lz that are not .tar.*-style archives. This allows an authenticated user with upload permissions for PCAP or log files to upload a highly compressible file, such as a gzip bomb (a malicious archive designed to crash a system by expanding to an enormous size), which can exhaust the shared Docker volume used by OpenSearch, Logstash, Arkime, and Zeek, leading to platform disruption for all users.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
