Security Vulnerabilities

actix-web: Multiple memory safety issues

RUSTSEC-2018-0019

Affected versions contain multiple memory safety issues, such as:

  • Unsoundly coercing immutable references to mutable references
  • Unsoundly extending lifetimes of strings
  • Adding the Send marker trait to objects that cannot be safely sent between threads

This may result in a variety of memory corruption scenarios, most likely use-after-free.

A significant refactoring effort has been conducted to resolve these issues.

image: Flaw in interface may drop uninitialized instance of arbitrary types

RUSTSEC-2019-0014

Affected versions of this crate would call Vec::set_len on an uninitialized vector with user-provided type parameter, in an interface of the HDR image format decoder. They would then also call other code that could panic before initializing all instances.

This could run Drop implementations on uninitialized types, equivalent to use-after-free, and allow an attacker arbitrary code execution.

Two different fixes were applied. It is possible to conserve the interface by ensuring proper initialization before calling Vec::set_len. Drop is no longer called in case of panic, though.

Starting from version 0.22, a breaking change to the interface requires callers to pre-allocate the output buffer and pass a mutable slice instead, avoiding all unsafe code.
