- GHSA-3jc5-5hc5-33gjData races in conquer-once2021-08-25ghsa · osvUS
Affected versions of conquer-once implements Sync for its OnceCell type without restricting it to Sendable types. This allows non-Send but Sync types such as MutexGuard to be sent across threads leading to undefined behavior and memory corruption in concurrent programs. The issue was fixed by adding a Send constraint to OnceCell.

Affected versions of `conquer-once` implements `Sync` for its `OnceCell` type without restricting it to `Send`able types. This allows non-`Send` but `Sync` types such as `MutexGuard` to be sent across threads leading to undefined behavior and memory corruption in concurrent programs. The issue was fixed by adding a `Send` constraint to `OnceCell`.
