node-tar is a Tar for Node.js. node-tar prior to version 6.2.1 has no limit on the number of sub-folders created in the folder creation process. An attacker who generates a large number of sub-folders can consume memory on the system running node-tar and even crash the Node.js client within few seconds of running it using a path with too many sub-folders inside. Version 6.2.1 fixes this issue by preventing extraction in excessively deep sub-folders.

GHSA-f5x3-32g6-xq36 — Denial of service while parsing a tar file due to lack of folders count validation

Affected: npm: node-tar, npm: tar

## Description: During some analysis today on npm's `node-tar` package I came across the folder creation process, Basicly if you provide node-tar with a path like this `./a/b/c/foo.txt` it would create every folder and sub-folder here a, b and c until it reaches the last folder to create `foo.txt`, In-this case I noticed that there's no validation at all on the amount of folders being created, that said we're actually able to CPU and memory consume the system running node-tar and even crash the nodejs client within few seconds of running it using a path with too many sub-folders inside

## Steps To Reproduce: You can reproduce this issue by downloading the tar file I provided in the resources and using node-tar to extract it, you should get the same behavior as the video

## Proof Of Concept: Here's a [video](https://hackerone-us-west-2-production-attachments.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/3i7uojw8s52psar6pg8zkdo4h9io?response-content-disposition=attachment%3B%20filename%3D%22tar-dos-poc.webm%22%3B%20filename%2A%3DUTF-8%27%27tar-dos-poc.webm&response-content-type=video%2Fwebm&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=ASIAQGK6FURQSWWGDXHA%2F20240312%2Fus-west-2%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20240312T080103Z&X-Amz-Expires=3600&X-Amz-Security-Token=IQoJb3JpZ2luX2VjEDcaCXVzLXdlc3QtMiJHMEUCID3xYDc6emXVPOg8iVR5dVk0u3gguTPIDJ0OIE%2BKxj17AiEAi%2BGiay1gGMWhH%2F031fvMYnSsa8U7CnpZpxvFAYqNRwgqsQUIQBADGgwwMTM2MTkyNzQ4NDkiDAaj6OgUL3gg4hhLLCqOBUUrOgWSqaK%2FmxN6nKRvB4Who3LIyzswFKm9LV9…
