Application hang via circular ROMFS offset chain
Published Feb 19, 2026 · Updated Feb 19, 2026
Starting with 5.0.1252.0, denial of service in NanaZip before 6.0.1630.0 allows attackers to hang the application via a crafted ROMFS file. The GetAllPaths function follows each untrusted ROMFS header NextOffset in a while loop without tracking visited offsets or capping iterations, so a circular chain never terminates. Opening the crafted archive is required, and the resulting infinite loop permanently hangs the NanaZip process without reported data disclosure or modification.
