Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Versions of zstd-safe from 3.0.1 before 7.4.0, and from 8.0.0 before 8.2.0, are affected. A use-after-free can occur when an application uses one compression or decompression context for a stream left unfinished and then a one-shot call, causing later streaming output to include freed heap memory. Exploitation requires the application to mix streaming and one-shot calls on one context without a reset in between. Upgrade to zstd-safe 7.4.0 or 8.2.0.
