The fix for CVE-2021-33196 can be bypassed by crafted inputs
Summary
The fix for CVE-2021-33196 can be bypassed by crafted inputs. As a result,
the NewReader and OpenReader functions in archive/zip can still cause a
panic or an unrecoverable fatal error when reading an archive that claims
to contain a large number of files, regardless of its actual size.
(CVE-2021-39293)
A security issue has been found in go before version 1.17.2. When invoking
functions from WASM modules, built using GOARCH=wasm GOOS=js, passing very
large arguments can cause portions of the module to be overwritten with
data from the arguments. (CVE-2021-38297)
