CVE-2026-25727
6.8
CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:H
Summary
time provides date and time handling in Rust. From 0.3.6 to before 0.3.47, when user-provided input is provided to any type that parses with the RFC 2822 format, a denial of service attack via stack exhaustion is possible. The attack relies on formally deprecated and rarely-used features that are part of the RFC 2822 format used in a malicious manner. Ordinary, non-malicious input will never encounter this scenario. A limit to the depth of recursion was added in v0.3.47. From this version, an error will be returned rather than exhausting the stack.
