Incident Response Checklist 🚨 Immediate Actions (0-24 hours) Notify all relevant stakeholders of the vulnerability and potential impact. Identify and list all applications and systems using the async-tar and tokio-tar libraries. Implement immediate network monitoring for unusual activity related to TAR file processing. Restrict access to systems known to use the vulnerable libraries. Issue a security advisory to developers and IT teams about the vulnerability. 🔄 Recovery Actions Patch all affected libraries and applications with the latest updates. Migrate to actively maintained forks like astral-tokio-tar version 0.5.6 or later. Restore any compromised systems from known good backups. Re-enable TAR file processing with additional security checks. Conduct a full system integrity check to ensure no lingering issues.
