An uncontrolled recursion vulnerability in the Elixir standard library allows an attacker who controls a list passed to inspect/1, List.to_string/1, or List.to_charlist/1 to exhaust a BEAM node's memory. The root cause is in Inspect.List's charlist branch: List.ascii_printable?/2 checks only the ...

CVE-2026-75758 Unbounded recursion between Inspect.List charlist rendering and List.to_string/1 error path in Elixir
