How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 rust-toolset:rhel8/rust-src.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rust-toolset:rhel8/rust-src package and not the rust-toolset:rhel8/rust-src package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in gix-date. The gix_date::parse::TimeBuf::as_str function can generate strings containing invalid non-UTF8 characters. This issue violates the internal safety invariants of the TimeBuf component, leading to undefined behavior when these malformed strings are subsequently processed. This could potentially result in application instability or other unforeseen consequences.
