An issue was discovered in the actix-web crate before 0.7.19 for Rust. It can unsoundly coerce an immutable reference into a mutable reference, leading to memory corruption.
Update actix-web to 0.7.19 if you use the affected versions. Test the change in a non-production environment first.
Local check
hol-guard supply-chain scanOut-of-bounds Write in actix-web affects actix-web (rust). Severity is critical. An issue was discovered in the actix-web crate before 0.7.19 for Rust. It can unsoundly coerce an immutable reference into a mutable reference, leading to memory corruption.
AI coding agents often install or upgrade packages automatically in rust. A critical vulnerability in a dependency can be pulled into a project through a normal install or update without a human reviewing the change, expanding the blast radius from a single package to every agent workspace that depends on it.
| Package | Affected range | Fixed version |
|---|---|---|
| actix-webrust | <0.7.19 | 0.7.19 |
