stack-graphs C API exports are safe extern "C" functions
What to do
Vendor response not established. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check back for a fix.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
`stack_graphs::c` is a public module. From 0.0.3 through the current crates.io release 0.14.1, its pointer-taking entry points are `pub extern "C" fn` rather than `unsafe fn`. Safe Rust can call them. `sg_stack_graph_free` frees the pointer with `Box::from_raw`. `sg_stack_graph_free(std::ptr::null_mut())` is immediate undefined behavior. The same shape is used by the other `*_free` exports and by getters and mutators that dereference the caller-supplied pointer or pass it to `from_raw_parts` (`sg_stack_graph_nodes`, `sg_stack_graph_add_edges`, and the rest of the pointer-taking functions in `src/c.rs`). Constructors that take no pointer are not part of this issue. The upstream repository is archived, so a fix cannot be filed there and no patched release exists. The soundness fix is to make every pointer-taking export `unsafe extern "C" fn`, with a safety comment that the pointer is non-null and, for `free`, came from the matching constructor.

# Patch Next advisory brief: rustsec-2026-0302 Advisory: `stack-graphs` C API exports are safe `extern "C"` functions IDs: rustsec-2026-0302 Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/rustsec-2026-0302 (revision 1, source checked 23 Oct 2026, 22:04 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Unrated Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - crates.io stack-graphs: affected >= 0.0.3-0 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - crates.io stack-graphs: check the installed version with your package manager. ## Supported action No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on stack-graphs. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/RUSTSEC-2026-0302 (OSV record RUSTSEC-2026-0302 lists affected ranges: crates.io stack-graphs >=0.0.3-0) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
