Medium (6.9) in contain-rs bit-vec.
On this page
bit-vec is a compact vector of bits. Prior to version 0.10.0, there is undefined behavior if a user performs deserialize from an untrusted source and unsafe get_unchecked. A user of this library may be impacted by incorrect behavior if they perform deserialize from an untrusted source and run operations on the deserialized BitVec. This issue has been patched in version 0.10.0.

Explain CVE-2026-68510 for an engineer deciding whether to act. Use https://cve.bz/api/public/cves/CVE-2026-68510?via=ask-ai-copy and https://cve.bz/cve/CVE-2026-68510?via=ask-ai-copy as the source of truth: what is affected and which versions fix it, whether it is in CISA KEV, public exploits, and its EPSS (an internet-wide 30-day estimate of exploitation activity, not a forecast for my systems). If they give no fixed versions, use the CVE record https://cveawg.mitre.org/api/cve/CVE-2026-68510 or the vendor advisory, not third-party mirrors. Tell me how to check whether I am affected and how to verify a fix. Cite the sources and say where they are uncertain.Opens a third-party assistant; its answer is its own, not cve.bz's.
