Vulert verdict on rustdecimal i

Updated on 23 Oct 2026

Careful: 3 of the 3 vulnerabilities Vulert records for this package have no fix yet. Plan around those, or apply the workaround listed for each. One of them is a malicious-package vulnerability, where a published version of the package contained hostile code rather than only a bug — worth checking against the versions you have resolved.

Long-term outlook: risky 3 vulnerabilities on record across 1 year, none in the last year.

What to do: Check whether you ever resolved an affected version — the vulnerabilities below name the releases that shipped hostile code. Check what you run: Vulert alerts you when a safe version is published. Monitor it with Vulert →

How many vulnerabilities does rustdecimal have?

How often are new rustdecimal vulnerabilities disclosed?

0 vulnerabilities were recorded for rustdecimal in the last 12 months, and the oldest entry in this database dates to 10 May 2022. Recency matters more than a lifetime total: it shows how actively new issues are being disclosed for the package you are considering.

Which versions of rustdecimal are affected?

Each vulnerability on this page lists the affected version range and the fixed version to move to. Open the vulnerability for the version you actually run — fixes are specific to a release line, not to the package as a whole.

What does a malicious-package vulnerability mean?

It means the published package itself contained hostile code — a backdoor, a credential stealer or similar — rather than only a bug. Registries remove such packages once they are confirmed, so treat any application that resolved an affected version as compromised and rotate the credentials it could reach.

How do I monitor rustdecimal for upcoming vulnerabilities?

Upload the manifest or SBOM for your application at vulert.com/scanner and Vulert keeps checking the rustdecimal version you actually run against new disclosures, then alerts you when one affects it. There is no installation and no source-code access required.
