Triton VM Soundness Vulnerability due to Improper Sampling of Randomness

In affected versions of Triton VM, the verifier failed to correctly sample randomness in the FRI sub-protocol. Malicious provers can exploit this to craft proofs for arbitrary statements that this verifier accepts as valid, undermining soundness. Protocols that rely on proofs and the supplied...

`DynFuture` drop can construct a dangling reference

DynFuture is unsound because its Drop implementation transmutes a trait-object reference into unrelated reference types, which constructs an invalid reference from trait object metadata. This issue was reproduced against dyn-future 3.0.4 under Miri. And the crate is unmaintained...

Multiple soundness issues in `scaly` safe APIs

Affected versions contain multiple safe APIs that can trigger undefined behavior: - Array::index can perform an out-of-bounds read. - String::getlength can perform an out-of-bounds read. - String::appendcharacter can perform an invalid write. - String::tocstring can perform an out-of-bounds write...

Non-constant-time code generation on ARM32 targets

Summary While the cmov crate has a special backend for aarch64 which uses special CSEL instructions, on 32-bit ARM it uses a portable pure Rust fallback implementation. This implementation uses a combination of bitwise arithmetic and core::hint::blackbox to attempt to coerce constant-time code...

`IterMut` violates Stacked Borrows by invalidating internal pointer

Affected versions of this crate contain a soundness issue in the IterMut iterator implementation. The IterMut::next and IterMut::nextback methods temporarily create an exclusive reference to the key when dereferencing the internal node pointer. This invalidates the shared pointer held by the...

Potential Undefined Behaviors in `Arc<T>`/`Rc<T>` impls of `from_value` on OOM

The SharedPointer::alloc implementation for sync::Arc and rc::Rc in rkyv/src/impls/alloc/rc/atomic.rs and rc.rs does not check if the allocator returns a null pointer on OOM Out of Memory. This null pointer can flow through to SharedPointer::fromvalue, which calls Box::fromrawptr with the null...

theshit vulnerable to unsafe loading of user-owned Python rules when running as root

The application loads custom Python rules and configuration files from user-writable locations e.g., /.config/theshit/ without validating ownership or permissions when executed with elevated privileges. If the tool is invoked with sudo or otherwise runs with an effective UID of root, it continues...

Non-utf8 String can be created with `TimeBuf::as_str`

The function gixdate::parse::TimeBuf::asstr can create an illegal string containing non-utf8 characters. This violates the safety invariant of TimeBuf and can lead to undefined behavior when consuming the string. The bug can be prevented by adding str::fromutf8 to the function TimeBuf::write...

Unsound APIs of public `constant::Reader` and `StructSchema`

The safe API functions constant::Reader::get and StructSchema::new rely on PointerReader::getrootunchecked, which can cause undefined behavior UB by constructing arbitrary words or schemas. Reader::get rust pub fn get&self - Result::Reader // ... // UNSAFE: access words without validation...

Unsoundness of safe `reciprocal_mg10`

The function reciprocalmg10 is marked as safe but can trigger undefined behavior out-of-bounds access because it relies on debugassert! for safety checks instead of assert!. When compiled in release mode, the debugassert! is optimized out, potentially allowing invalid inputs to cause memory...

Bincode is unmaintained

Incorrect calculation on aarch64

On platforms without the core::arch::aarch64::vxarqu64 intrinsic, an unverified fallback in libcrux-intrinsics v0.0.3 passed incorrect arguments and produced wrong results. This corrupted SHA-3 digests and caused libcrux-ml-kem and libcrux-ml-dsa to sample incorrectly, yielding incorrect shared...

`Reader::open_mmap` unsoundly marks unsafe memmap operation as safe

maxminddb prior to version 0.27 declared Reader::openmmap as safe despite wrapping an inherently unsafe memmap2 operation with no extra step done to guarantee safety. This could have led to undefined behaviour if the file were to be modified on disk while the memory map was still active...

rustls-pemfile is unmaintained

The rustls-pemfile crate is no longer maintained. The repository has been archived since August 2025, and users are encouraged to depend directly on the underlying PEM parsing code included in rustls-pki-types since 1.9.0. The latest version of rustls-pemfile is in fact a thin wrapper around the...

Missing check in ZK proof in CGGMP21 Threshold Signing Protocol

Underflow in aes_key_unwrap function

The aeskeyunwrap function would panic if passed a ciphertext that was too short. In a debug build, it would panic due to a subtraction underflow. In a release build, it would use the small negative quantity to allocate a vector. Since the allocator expects an unsigned quantity, the negative value...

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

Multiple soundness issues in `stackvector`

Affected versions of stackvector contained multiple soundness issues that could allow safe Rust code to trigger undefined behavior. One issue was that StackVec::length was exposed as a public field. Safe Rust code could set length to a value larger than the backing array capacity. Other safe...

Uninitialized memory exposure in string reading functions

Multiple string reading functions expose uninitialized memory by setting length to capacity when no null terminator is found. This allows reading uninitialized memory which may contain sensitive data from previous allocations. The ncurses-rs repository is archived and unmaintained...

Uninitialized memory exposure in any_as_u8_slice

The safe function anyasu8slice can create byte slices that reference uninitialized memory when used with types containing padding bytes. The function uses slice::fromrawparts to create a &u8 covering the entire size of a type, including padding bytes. According to Rust's documentation, fromrawpar...

astral-tokio-tar Vulnerable to PAX Header Desynchronization

Versions of astral-tokio-tar prior to 0.5.6 contain a boundary parsing vulnerability that allows attackers to smuggle additional archive entries by exploiting inconsistent PAX/ustar header handling. When processing archives with PAX-extended headers containing size overrides, the parser incorrect...

`tokio-tar` parses PAX extended headers incorrectly, allows file smuggling

The archive reader incorrectly handles PAX extended headers, when the ustar header incorrectly specifies zero size size=000000000000, while a PAX header specifies a non-zero size, tokio-tar::Archive is going to read the file content as tar entry header. This can be used by a tar file to present...

Out-of-bounds memory access in binary_read_to_ref and binary_write_from_ref

Safe functions accept a single &T or &mut T but multiply by n to create slices extending beyond allocated memory when n 1. These functions use fromrawparts to create slices larger than the underlying allocation, violating memory safety. The binaryvecio repository is archived and unmaintained...

Uninitialized memory exposure in create_ring_buffer

The safe function createringbuffer allocates a buffer using Vec::withcapacity followed by setlen, creating a Box containing uninitialized memory. This leads to undefined behavior when functions like writeslices create typed slices e.g., &mut bool over the uninitialized memory, violating Rust's...
