Rust 1.94.1 released — CVE-2026-33055 and CVE-2026-33056 patched in Cargo tar crate

release HIGH
Rust 1.94.1 was released on 2026-03-26 as a patch release. It updates Cargo's bundled tar crate from 0.4.44 to 0.4.45, fixing two CVEs: CVE-2026-33056 (arbitrary directory permission modification via symlink following during crate extraction) and CVE-2026-33055 (PAX header size override confusion enabling archive smuggling). Public crates.io users were audited and no malicious crates were found, but ODS CI environments that build Rust with older toolchains should upgrade immediately.

ODS Impact

All ODS Rust services (billing-engine, oid, pdf-engine, docstore, etc.) rely on cargo for builds. A build environment still on Rust ≤ 1.94.0 is vulnerable to supply chain attacks via crafted crates during CI builds. Upgrade Rust toolchain in all Docker build images and GitHub Actions runners.
