Potential undefined behavior when calling Remote::list()

When calling Remote::list for a remote of a git repository, when that remote does not advertise any references, git2 passes a null pointer to the unsafe function slice::fromrawparts. Based on the safety section documentation of function, data must be non-null even for slices of length zero. Thus,...

Out-of-bounds read in `bytes_helper` public safe functions

The byteshelper module contains multiple public functions intoarr4, intoarr2, u8fromlebytes that use slice.getuncheckedpos..pos + N without verifying that pos + N = slice.len. These are public safe API functions, allowing any caller to trigger undefined behavior by passing invalid positions. For...

Null-pointer dereference and double-free via safe APIs

Two soundness violations exist in the Rust bindings for MetaCall: Null-pointer dereference: MetaCallFuture::newraw accepts a raw pointer without validation. The Debug impl calls Box::fromrawself.data on it. Passing a null pointer causes the Debug impl to construct a NonNull from null, producing...

Symbol confusion after hasher panic in `intaglio` interners

Affected versions of this crate can leave all SymbolTable variants in an internally inconsistent state if a custom BuildHasher panics during HashMap::insert and the caller recovers with catchunwind. The intern implementations committed a vec.push... before the matching map.insert... completed. If...

Denial of service in Quinn endpoints

Receiving QUIC transport parameters containing invalid values could lead to a panic. Unfortunately the maintainers did not properly assess usage of unwrap calls in the transport parameters parsing code, and we did not have sufficient fuzzing coverage to find this issue. We have since added a...

Panic in Standalone MAC Operations

An incorrect constant for the key length in libcrux-poly1305 caused the standalone MAC function libcruxpoly1305::mac to always panic with an out-of-bounds memory access.

Double Public Key Signing Function Oracle Attack on `ed25519-dalek`

Versions of ed25519-dalek prior to v2.0 model private and public keys as separate types which can be assembled into a Keypair, and also provide APIs for serializing and deserializing 64-byte private/public keypairs. Such APIs and serializations are inherently unsafe as the public key is one of th...

wee_alloc is Unmaintained

Two of the maintainers have indicated that the crate may not be maintained. The crate has open issues including memory leaks and may not be suitable for production use. It may be best to switch to the default Rust standard allocator on wasm32 targets. Last release seems to have been three years...

`SegQueue` creates zero value of any type

Affected versions of this crate called mem::zeroed to create values of a user-supplied type T. This is unsound e.g. if T is a reference type which must be non-null. The flaw was corrected by avoiding the use of mem::zeroed, using MaybeUninit instead...

Denial of service through parsing payloads with too big exponent

The parseduration::parse function allows for parsing duration strings with exponents like 5e5s where under the hood, the BigInt type along with the pow function are used for such payloads. Passing an arbitrarily big exponent makes the parseduration::parse function to process the payload for a ver...

`quinn` invalidly assumes the memory layout of std::net::SocketAddr

The quinn crate has assumed std::net::SocketAddrV4 and std::net::SocketAddrV6 have the same memory layout as the system C representation sockaddr. It has simply casted the pointers to convert the socket addresses to the system representation. The standard library does not say anything about the...

SliceDeque::drain_filter can double drop an element if the predicate panics

Affected versions of the crate incremented the current index of the drain filter iterator before calling the predicate function self.pred. If the predicate function panics, it is possible for the last element in the iterator to be dropped twice...

panic safety: double drop or uninitialized drop of T upon panic

Affected versions of this crate did not guard against potential panics that may happen from user-provided functions T::default and T::drop. Panic within T::default leads to dropping uninitialized T, when it is invoked from common::Slice::::new. Panic within T::drop leads to double drop of T, when...

Reading on uninitialized buffer may cause UB ( `gfx_auxil::read_spirv()` )

Affected versions of this crate passes an uninitialized buffer to a user-provided Read implementation. Arbitrary Read implementations can read from the uninitialized buffer memory exposure and also can return incorrect number of bytes written to the buffer. Reading from uninitialized memory...

Observable Discrepancy in libsecp256k1-rs

A timing vulnerability in the Scalar::checkoverflow function in Parity libsecp256k1-rs before 0.3.1 potentially allows an attacker to leak information via a side-channel attack...

Flaw in Scalar::check_overflow allows side-channel timing attack

Versions of libsecp256k1 prior to 0.3.1 did not execute Scalar::checkoverflow in constant time. This allows an attacker to potentially leak information via a timing attack. The flaw was corrected by modifying Scalar::checkoverflow to execute in constant time...

`Matrix::zip_elements` causes double free

Affected versions of this crate did not properly implements the Matrix::zipelements method, which causes an double free when the given trait implementation might panic. This allows an attacker to corrupt or take control of the memory. The flaw was corrected by Phosphorus15...

Wrong memory orderings in RwLock potentially violates mutual exclusion

Wrong memory orderings inside the RwLock implementation allow for two writers to acquire the lock at the same time. The drop implementation used Ordering::Relaxed, which allows the compiler or CPU to reorder a mutable access on the locked data after the lock has been yielded. Only users of the...

Fix for UB in failure to catch panics crossing FFI boundaries

Affected versions of this crate failed to catch panics crossing FFI boundaries via callbacks, which is a form of UB. This flaw was corrected by this commit1 which was included in version 2.6.0. 1: https://github.com/jnqnfe/pulse-binding-rust/commit/7fd282aef7787577c385aed88cb25d004b85f494...

A `BigInt` division panics, and two neighbouring operations answer wrongly in silence

viperjs is a JavaScript engine intended to run untrusted script inside a host application, so script text is data rather than a trusted caller and a panic reachable from script is a denial of service in the embedder's process. A divisor whose magnitude lands exactly on the engine's internal limb...

Remote Denial of Service via malformed NIP‑44 v2 payload

The NIP-44 v2 decryption path in the nostr crate contains a reachable panic when processing a short or empty ciphertext. After the HMAC check passes and the ciphertext is decrypted via ChaCha20, the code reads a 2‑byte unpadded‑length prefix via buffer0..2 without first verifying that the decrypt...

Non-painting replaced elements amplify to thousands of blank PDF pages (denial of service)

fulgur converts untrusted HTML/CSS into PDF, commonly on a server that processes input supplied by many tenants. In versions prior to 0.26.0, a childless box that resolves to a pathologically tall height was amplified into thousands of blank PDF pages, even when it produces no visible output. The...

`exploration` was removed from crates.io for malicious code

A method within the exploration crate attempted to download and execute a payload from a remote site. The malicious crate had 1 version published on 2026-06-02, approximately 1 hour before removal, and had no evidence of actual usage. This crate had no dependencies on crates.io. Thanks to Kirill...

`Program<System>` accepts arbitrary executable programs

Affected versions of anchor-lang did not properly validate accounts declared as Program. The generic Program validation path used Pubkey::default as a sentinel to decide whether any executable program should be accepted. Since the system program id is also the default pubkey, Program was treated...

Out-of-bounds read/write in `Index` and `IndexMut` implementations

The Index and IndexMut implementations for Caja use unchecked pointer arithmetic without bounds validation. Creating a Caja with a small key and then accessing an out-of-range index causes out-of-bounds reads or writes beyond the allocated memory. This can be triggered through safe public APIs —...

Potential out-of-bounds write via public `Context` fields

The Context struct has all fields public pub dlen, pub digest, etc.. Code from other modules within the same crate can directly modify dlen to a value exceeding the digest vector length. When reset is subsequently called, self.digestself.dlen as usize = 0 becomes an out-of-bounds write. Withdrawa...
