Describe the current, buggy behavior

When attempting to run wp core download --version=6.8.1, the process fails with a PHP fatal error due to exhausted memory. The download begins and the hash is verified, but then it fails during extraction with an Allowed memory size error.

Describe how other contributors can replicate this bug

1. Run the following command in a terminal:

   wp core download --version=6.8.1. 

Versions:
wp cli 2.12.0
php 8.2.28

If you run out of memory, please try php -d memory_limit=512M "$(which wp)" core download --version=6.8.1

Perfect , that works!
Jus for context, this started to happen since I upgraded from version 6.4 to 6.8
