What is CVE-2017-1000430?

The rust-base64 library, specifically versions up to and including 0.5.1, is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability. This occurs during the size calculation of buffers needed for base64 encoding via the 'encode_config_buf' and 'encode_config' functions. An attacker can exploit this flaw to potentially execute arbitrary code, making it crucial for developers using this library to upgrade to a secure version to mitigate risks associated with this vulnerability.
