Machine-written summary

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

Versions 2.0.9 up to but not including 2.1.2 of the zstd-sys crate are affected. On wasm32, its malloc and free shim did not check for allocation failure, so when the instance could not grow its memory, a small crafted zstd frame could make decompression overwrite the bottom of the module's linear memory. The corruption stays inside the WebAssembly sandbox. Upgrade zstd-sys to 2.1.2 or later.
