Libarchive: libarchive: denial of service via malformed iso file processing

A flaw was found in libarchive. An Undefined Behavior vulnerability exists in the zisofs decompression logic, caused by improper validation of a field (`pz_log2_bs`) read from ISO9660 Rock Ridge extensions.

This can lead to incorrect memory allocation and potential application crashes, resulting in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition.
