Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for rust-coreutils.

CVE-2026-35371[0]:
| The id utility in uutils coreutils exhibits incorrect behavior in
| its "pretty print" output when the real UID and effective UID
| differ. The implementation incorrectly uses the effective GID
| instead of the effective UID when performing a name lookup for the
| effective user. This results in misleading diagnostic output that
| can cause automated scripts or system administrators to make
| incorrect decisions regarding file permissions or access control.
