A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the jaraco/zipp
library, affecting all versions prior to 3.19.1. The vulnerability is
triggered when processing a specially crafted zip file that leads to an
infinite loop. This issue also impacts the zipfile module of CPython, as
features from the third-party zipp library are later merged into
CPython, and the affected code is identical in both projects. The
infinite loop can be initiated through the use of functions affecting
the `Path` module in both zipp and zipfile, such as `joinpath`, the
overloaded division operator, and `iterdir`. Although the infinite loop
is not resource exhaustive, it prevents the application from responding.
The vulnerability was addressed in version 3.19.1 of jaraco/zipp.
