Until a fix is released, avoid processing untrusted ZIP archives with unarr to mitigate risk.
Description
A heap-based out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in unarr through version 1.1.1 within the zip_parse_extra_fields() function due to an incorrect ZIP64 extra field length check. This flaw allows an attacker to craft a malicious ZIP archive with specific sentinel values and a truncated ZIP64 record, causing the process to read beyond the heap buffer and potentially crash.
