azure/msgpack can crash from deeply nested data

Summary

The version 3.3.0-1 of azure/msgpack can run out of memory and stop working if it receives specially crafted MessagePack data with many nested containers. This can interrupt a web request or background job that uses the library. Upgrade to version 6.1.0 or later to prevent the crash.

Original advisory text
CVE-2026-107298 affecting package msgpack 3.3.0-1
msgpack5 is a msgpack v5 implementation for node.js and the browser. Prior to 6.1.0, the array and map decoding paths have no nesting-depth limit, allowing an attacker who can provide MessagePack input to submit deeply nested containers that exhaust the JavaScript call stack and interrupt a process, worker, or request handler. This issue is fixed in version 6.1.0.
