Summary

RustFS is a distributed object storage system built in Rust. In versions 1.0.0-alpha.13 to 1.0.0-alpha.77, a malformed gRPC GetMetrics request causes get_metrics to unwrap() failed deserialization of metric_type/opts, panicking the handler thread and enabling remote denial of service of the metrics endpoint. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.0-alpha.78.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
