CRITICAL 9.8EPSS 1.19%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.19%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

An issue was discovered in the nanorand crate before 0.6.1 for Rust. There can be multiple mutable references to the same object because the TlsWyRand Deref implementation dereferences a raw pointer.
