Descriptions

It is possible for a Reader to consume memory beyond the allowed constraints and thus lead to out of memory on the system. This issue affects Rust applications using Apache Avro Rust SDK prior to 0.14.0 (previously known as avro-rs). Users should update to apache-avro version 0.14.0 which addresses this issue.

Es posible que un Lector consuma memoria más allá de las restricciones permitidas y, por tanto, conlleve a una falta de memoria en el sistema. Este problema afecta a las aplicaciones Rust usando el SDK de Apache Avro Rust versiones anteriores a 0.14.0 (anteriormente se conoce como avro-rs). Los usuarios deben actualizar a versión 0.14.0 de apache-avro que aborda este problema
