Zoo Design Studio: Memory-corruption in memory handling of lib-kcl

  • Disclosed: 20.08.2026
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 15:17

A race condition in kcl-lib can result in a use-after-free when accessing environments concurrently. During Vec reallocation, the previous buffer containing Box pointers is freed and replaced. A concurrent get_env operation that has already loaded a pointer to the old buffer may subsequently index into freed memory and retrieve a stale or corrupted Pin<Box<Environment>>.
