An issue was discovered in the pyo3 crate before 0.12.4 for Rust. There is a reference-counting error and use-after-free in From<Py>.

Weakness

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
