Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The orion crate's BLAKE2b MAC implementation is affected in versions before 0.17.16 and from 0.18.0 up to 0.18.1. Calling reset() with a key of a different length than the one used at initialization produces an incorrect tag, so verification can fail even between honest parties; no attacker action is described. Upgrade to orion 0.17.16 or 0.18.1.
