NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rust-afterburn package and not the rust-afterburn package as distributed by RHEL.

A flaw was found in the user's crate for Rust. This vulnerability allows privilege escalation via incorrect group listing when a user or process has fewer than exactly 1024 groups, leading to the erroneous inclusion of the root group in the access list.
