An issue was discovered in the sized-chunks crate through 0.6.2 for Rust. In the Chunk implementation, insert_from can have a memory-safety issue upon a panic.
The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.
