UBUNTU-CVE-2023-41051

In a typical Virtual Machine Monitor VMM there are several components, such as boot loader, virtual device drivers, virtio backend drivers and vhost drivers, that need to access the VM physical memory. The vm-memory rust crate provides a set of traits to decouple VM memory consumers from VM memor...

Default functions in VolatileMemory trait lack bounds checks, potentially leading to out-of-bounds memory accesses

An issue was discovered in the default implementations of the VolatileMemory::getatomicref, alignedasref, alignedasmut, getref, getarrayref trait functions, which allows out-of-bounds memory access if the VolatileMemory::getslice function returns a VolatileSlice whose length is less than the...
