Archive::Tar's +non-skip extract path at Tar.pm:501 allocates a Perl scalar of the declared +size before returning the read-short error, allowing a few-KB compressed +archive declaring a 100 GB inner entry to trigger immediate multi-GB +allocation. The existing $EXTRACT_BLOCK_SIZE is an output-side syswrite +chunk size, not an input cap. + +Add $MAX_FILE_SIZE (default 1 GiB) checked once per entry, gating both the +chunked-skip and full-slurp branches.
