Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The uu_id crate, part of uutils coreutils, is affected in versions before 0.6.0. When the real and effective UIDs differ, the id utility's pretty-print output looks up the effective user's name using the effective GID instead of the effective UID, producing misleading output. The source does not describe what an attacker must do to trigger it, and no workaround is given, so upgrading to 0.6.0 is the fix.
