Description
CVE-2026-83530 is a medium severity vulnerability in the golang-github-google-cel-go library where a user can submit an expression string longer than the configured ParserExpressionSizeLimit(). This leads to memory allocation proportional to the input size before the limit is enforced, impacting integrity but not confidentiality or availability.
