    RUSTSEC-2026-0298 (GHSA-8GW6-724C-9H38)

    Summary
    Use-after-free when a future's `Drop` panics while the container is dropped
    Details

    Storage::clear walks the slab, empties each entry and frees the Task allocation once its reference count reaches zero. self.tasks.set_len(0) only runs after the loop.

    Emptying an entry drops the user future it holds, and T carries no bounds excluding a panicking Drop. If one unwinds, the length is never committed and self.tasks still holds the pointers already processed. Drop for Storage calls clear again, and the second pass dereferences (*task.as_ptr()).entry on allocations the first pass already freed — a use-after-free (CWE-416) reachable from safe Rust.

    Storage is reached only through Unordered, whose Drop calls clear. No particular method call is needed; dropping the container is enough.

    Mitigation

    Update to 0.10.3.
