CVE-2021-28878
In the standard library in Rust before 1.52.0, the Zip implementation calls __iterator_get_unchecked() more than once for the same index (under certain conditions) when next_back() and next() are used together.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.00%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In the standard library in Rust before 1.52.0, the Zip implementation calls __iterator_get_unchecked() more than once for the same index (under certain conditions) when next_back() and next() are used together. This bug could lead to a memory safety violation due to an unmet safety requirement for the TrustedRandomAccess trait.
