Security update for path traversal CVE-2025-59825 / GHSA-3wgq-wrwc-vqmv.
Summary
A Rust implementation of an async TAR file reader and writer. This
library does not currently handle compression, but it is abstract over
all I/O readers and writers. Additionally, great lengths are taken to
ensure that the entire contents are never required to be entirely
resident in memory all at once.
Update Information:
Security update for path traversal CVE-2025-59825 / GHSA-3wgq-wrwc-vqmv.
