1. CVE-2026-5223 Crates in third party registries can override the cached source of other crates

   Published 2026-05-25

   Medium·CVSS 6.5 EPSS 0.29%

   Cargo incorrectly handled symlinks inside of crate tarballs downloaded from third-party registries, allowing a malicious crate to override the source code of another crate from the same registry. The severity of the vulnerability is medium for users of third-party registries. Use...

2. CVE-2026-5222 Cargo can be coerced to share credentials between registries

   Published 2026-05-25

   Low·CVSS 2.3 EPSS 0.48%

   Cargo between 1.68 and 1.96 incorrectly normalized the URLs of third-party registries using the sparse index protocol. If a hosting provider allowed multiple registries to be hosted with arbitrary names within the same domain, an attacker able to publish crates in a registry coul...

3. CVE-2023-40030 Malicious dependencies can inject arbitrary JavaScript into cargo-generated timing reports

   Published 2023-08-24

   Medium·CVSS 6.1 EPSS 0.90%

   Cargo downloads a Rust project’s dependencies and compiles the project. Starting in Rust 1.60.0 and prior to 1.72, Cargo did not escape Cargo feature names when including them in the report generated by cargo build --timings. A malicious package included as a dependency may injec...

4. CVE-2023-38497 Cargo not respecting umask when extracting crate archives

   Published 2023-08-04

   High·CVSS 7.3 EPSS 0.70%

   Cargo downloads the Rust project’s dependencies and compiles the project. Cargo prior to version 0.72.2, bundled with Rust prior to version 1.71.1, did not respect the umask when extracting crate archives on UNIX-like systems. If the user downloaded a crate containing files write...

5. CVE-2022-46176 Cargo did not verify SSH host keys

   Published 2023-01-11

   Medium·CVSS 5.9 EPSS 0.71% PoC

   Cargo is a Rust package manager. The Rust Security Response WG was notified that Cargo did not perform SSH host key verification when cloning indexes and dependencies via SSH. An attacker could exploit this to perform man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. This vulnerability has been...

6. CVE-2022-36114 Extracting malicious crates can fill the file system

   Published 2022-09-14

   Medium·CVSS 6.5 EPSS 1.0%

   Cargo is a package manager for the rust programming language. It was discovered that Cargo did not limit the amount of data extracted from compressed archives. An attacker could upload to an alternate registry a specially crafted package that extracts way more data than its size...

7. CVE-2022-36113 Extracting malicious crates can corrupt arbitrary files

   Published 2022-09-14

   High·CVSS 8.1 EPSS 1.3%

   Cargo is a package manager for the rust programming language. After a package is downloaded, Cargo extracts its source code in the ~/.cargo folder on disk, making it available to the Rust projects it builds. To record when an extraction is successful, Cargo writes "ok" to the .ca...

8. CVE-2019-16760 Cargo prior to Rust 1.26.0 may download the wrong dependency

   Published 2019-09-30

   High·CVSS 7.5 EPSS 1.3%

   Cargo prior to Rust 1.26.0 may download the wrong dependency if your package.toml file uses the package configuration key. Usage of the package key to rename dependencies in Cargo.toml is ignored in Rust 1.25.0 and prior. When Rust 1.25.0 and prior is used Cargo may download the...

9. CVE-2016-10130 The http_connect function in transports/http.c in libgit2 before 0.24.6 and 0.25.x before 0.25.1 might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers by leveraging clobbering of the error variable...

   Published 2017-03-24

   Medium·CVSS 5.9 EPSS 1.7%

   The http_connect function in transports/http.c in libgit2 before 0.24.6 and 0.25.x before 0.25.1 might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers by leveraging clobbering of the error variable.

10. CVE-2016-10129 The Git Smart Protocol support in libgit2 before 0.24.6 and 0.25.x before 0.25.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via an empty packet line.

    Published 2017-03-24

    High·CVSS 7.5 EPSS 3.6%

    The Git Smart Protocol support in libgit2 before 0.24.6 and 0.25.x before 0.25.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via an empty packet line.

11. CVE-2016-10128 Buffer overflow in the git_pkt_parse_line function in transports/smart_pkt.c in the Git Smart Protocol support in libgit2 before 0.24.6 and 0.25.x before 0.25.1 allows remote attackers to have unspeci...

    Critical·CVSS 9.8 EPSS 4.0%

    Buffer overflow in the git_pkt_parse_line function in transports/smart_pkt.c in the Git Smart Protocol support in libgit2 before 0.24.6 and 0.25.x before 0.25.1 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted non-flush packet.

12. CVE-2016-8569 The git_oid_nfmt function in commit.c in libgit2 before 0.24.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a cat-file command with a crafted object file.

    Published 2017-02-03

    Medium·CVSS 5.5 EPSS 1.9%

    The git_oid_nfmt function in commit.c in libgit2 before 0.24.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a cat-file command with a crafted object file.

13. CVE-2016-8568 The git_commit_message function in oid.c in libgit2 before 0.24.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a cat-file command with a crafted object file.
