No affected components available
The crate slice-ring-buffer was developed as a fork of slice-deque to continue maintenance and provide security patches, since the latter has been officially unmaintained (RUSTSEC-2020-0158).
While slice-ring-buffer has addressed some previously reported memory safety issues inherited from its fork origin (RUSTSEC-2021-0047), it still retains multiple unresolved memory corruption vulnerabilities.
Specifically, we have discovered four new memory safety bugs, each resulting in double-free violations that can occur when only safe APIs are invoked. These vulnerabilities correspond to four distinct safe APIs in the crate, each exposing unsound and vulnerable behavior due to incorrect usage of unsafe code internally.
Unfortunately, the maintainer doesn't have much availability to resolve these issues so there's no concrete timeline for fixes. Community contributions towards fixing these vulnerabilities would be much appreciated.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker does not need any special privileges or access rights. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability.
Exploitation activity has been observed. Apply available patches or mitigations urgently.
