NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rust-smallbitvec package and not the rust-smallbitvec package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.
smallbitvec is a growable bit-vector for Rust, optimized for size. From 1.0.1 to 2.6.0, an integer overflow in the internal capacity calculation of smallbitvec can lead to an undersized heap allocation, resulting in a heap buffer overflow through safe APIs only. This allows memory corruption without requiring unsafe code from the caller. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.1.
