There is no fixed version for Debian:14 rust-coreutils.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rust-coreutils package and not the rust-coreutils package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:14 relevant fixed versions and status.

The cp utility in uutils coreutils fails to properly handle setuid and setgid bits when ownership preservation fails. When copying with the -p (preserve) flag, the utility applies the source mode bits even if the chown operation is unsuccessful. This can result in a user-owned copy retaining original privileged bits, creating unexpected privileged executables that violate local security policies. This differs from GNU cp, which clears these bits when ownership cannot be preserved.
