Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

netfoil, a Go package (github.com/tinfoil-factory/netfoil), is vulnerable in versions before 0.3.0. When entries are removed from its LRU cache, a pointer to the removed element is not properly cleaned up, causing a resource leak. A local attacker can cause netfoil to use more memory, which by default is limited to 100MB via systemd and triggers service restarts when reached. Upgrade to version 0.3.0.
