Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Fulcio, the Go package github.com/sigstore/fulcio before 1.8.3, allocates excessive memory when parsing an invalid OIDC identity token containing many period characters. An attacker who can send a malicious request can cause large memory allocations, which is a resource-consumption denial of service. Upgrade to version 1.8.3 or later.
