TL;DR

Affected versions of this package contain a soundness issue in functions that allowed skipping UTF-8 validation via an is_ascii flag. This could lead to memory safety violations if non-ASCII strings were incorrectly marked as ASCII. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by supplying a malicious string containing non-ASCII Unicode, triggering undefined behavior that could result in panic, crashes, or memory corruption.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
