gix-worktree-state nonexclusive checkout sets executable files world-writable

Summary gix-worktree-state specifies 0777 permissions when checking out executable files, intending that the umask will restrict them appropriately. But one of the strategies it uses to set permissions is not subject to the umask. This causes files in a repository to be world-writable in some...

Malicious plugin names, recipients, or identities can cause arbitrary binary execution

A plugin name containing a path separator may allow an attacker to execute an arbitrary binary. Such a plugin name can be provided to the rage CLI through an attacker-controlled recipient or identity string, or an attacker-controlled plugin name via the -j flag. On UNIX systems, a directory...

Build corruption when using `PYO3_CONFIG_FILE` environment variable

In PyO3 0.23.0 the PYO3CONFIGFILE environment variable used to configure builds regressed such that changing the environment variable would no longer trigger PyO3 to reconfigure and recompile. In combination with workflows using tools such as maturin to build for multiple versions in a single...

Remotely exploitable Denial of Service in Tonic

Impact When using tonic::transport::Server there is a remote DoS attack that can cause the server to exit cleanly on accepting a tcp/tls stream. This can be triggered via causing the accept call to error out with errors there were not covered correctly causing the accept loop to exit. More...

Segmentation fault due to use of uninitialized memory

When trying to decompress a file using "ouch", we can reach the function "ouch::archive::zip::convertzipdatetime". In the function, there is a unsafe function, "transmute". Once the "transmute" function is called to convert the type of "month" object, the address of the object is changed to the...

Memory leak when calling a canister method via `ic_cdk::call`

When a canister method is called via iccdk::call, a new Future CallFuture is created and can be awaited by the caller to get the execution result. Internally, the state of the Future is tracked and stored in a struct called CallFutureState. A bug in the polling implementation of the CallFuture...

CWA-2023-004: Excessive number of function parameters in compiled Wasm

A specifically crafted Wasm file can cause the VM to consume excessive amounts of memory when compiling a contract. This can lead to high memory usage, slowdowns, potentially a crash and can poison a lock in the VM, preventing any further interaction with contracts. For more information, see...

Binary Protocol Misinterpretation caused by Truncating or Overflowing Casts

The following presentation at this year's DEF CON was brought to our attention on the Diesel Gitter Channel: SQL Injection isn't Dead: Smuggling Queries at the Protocol Level Archive link for posterity. Essentially, encoding a value larger than 4GiB can cause the length prefix in the protocol to...

CWA-2024-004: Gas mispricing in cosmwasm-vm

Some Wasm operations take significantly more gas than our benchmarks indicated. This can lead to missing the gas target we defined by a factor of 10x. This means a malicious contract could take 10 times as much time to execute as expected, which can be used to temporarily DoS a chain. For more...

phonenumber: panic on parsing crafted phonenumber inputs

Impact The phonenumber parsing code may panic due to a reachable assert! guard on the phonenumber string. In a typical deployment of rust-phonenumber, this may get triggered by feeding a maliciously crafted phonenumber, e.g. over the network, specifically strings of the form...

Timing variability in `curve25519-dalek`'s `Scalar29::sub`/`Scalar52::sub`

Timing variability of any kind is problematic when working with potentially secret values such as elliptic curve scalars, and such issues can potentially leak private keys and other secrets. Such a problem was recently discovered in curve25519-dalek. The Scalar29::sub 32-bit and Scalar52::sub...

Refs and paths with reserved Windows device names access the devices

Summary On Windows, fetching refs that clash with legacy device names reads from the devices, and checking out paths that clash with such names writes arbitrary data to the devices. This allows a repository, when cloned, to cause indefinite blocking or the production of arbitrary message that...

BTreeMap memory leak when deallocating nodes with overflows

When storing unbounded types in a BTreeMap, a node is represented as a linked list of "memory chunks". In some cases, when we deallocate a node only the first memory chunk is deallocated, and the rest of the memory chunks remain incorrectly allocated, causing a memory leak. In the worst case,...

Slow loris vulnerability with default configuration

tls-listener is a rust lang wrapper around a connection listener to support TLS. With the default configuration of tls-listener, a malicious user can open 6.4 TcpStreams a second, sending 0 bytes, and can trigger a DoS. The default configuration options make any public service using...

Tokens for named pipes may be delivered after deregistration

Impact When using named pipes on Windows, mio will under some circumstances return invalid tokens that correspond to named pipes that have already been deregistered from the mio registry. The impact of this vulnerability depends on how mio is used. For some applications, invalid tokens may be...

Insufficient covariance check makes self_cell unsound

All public versions prior to 1.02 used an insufficient check to ensure that users correctly marked the dependent type as either covariant or notcovariant. This allowed users to mark a dependent as covariant even though its type was not covariant but invariant, for certain invariant types involvin...

Library exclusively intended to inject UB into safe Rust.

Quoting from the crate description: This crate is created purely to inject undefined behavior into stable, safe rust. Specifically, the inconceivable! macro is insta-UB if the ubinconceivable feature is enabled by any reverse dependency. The value this adds is questionable, and hides unsafe code...

NSEC3 closest-encloser proof validation enters unbounded loop on cross-zone responses

The NSEC3 closest-encloser proof validation in hickory-proto's DnssecDnsHandle walks from the QNAME up to the SOA owner name, building a list of candidate encloser names.
