CVE-2021-3912

OctoRPKI tries to load the entire contents of a repository in memory, and in the case of a GZIP bomb, unzip it in memory, making it possible to create a repository that makes OctoRPKI run out of memory (and thus crash).

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.85%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
