NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rust-toolset-1.52-rustfmt package and not the rust-toolset-1.52-rustfmt package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the standard library in Rust before 1.52.0, the Zip implementation can report an incorrect size due to an integer overflow. This bug can lead to a buffer overflow when a consumed Zip iterator is used again.
