GHSA-w3g5-2848-2v8rMediumCVSS 5.9
Data races in generator
🔗 CVE IDs covered (1)
📋 Description
The Generator type is an iterable which uses a generator function that yields
values. In affected versions of the crate, the provided function yielding values
had no Send bounds despite the Generator itself implementing Send.
The generator function lacking a Send bound means that types that are
dangerous to send across threads such as Rc could be sent as part of a
generator, potentially leading to data races.
This flaw was fixed in commit f7d120a3b
by enforcing that the generator function be bound by Send.
