RUSTSEC-2020-0094
No affected components available
ARefss<'a, V> is a type that is assumed to contain objects that are Send + Sync.
In the affected versions of this crate,
Send/Sync traits are unconditionally implemented for ARefss<'a, V>.
By using the ARefss::map() API, we can insert a !Send or !Sync object into ARefss<'a, V>. After that, it is possible to create a data race to the inner object of ARefss<'a, V>, which can lead to undefined behavior & memory corruption.
The flaw was corrected in commit 6dd7ca0 (https://github.com/diwic/reffers-rs/commit/6dd7ca0d50f2464df708975cdafcfaeeb6d41c66) by adding trait bound V: Send + Sync to ARefss::map() API.
The vulnerability requires local access to the device to be exploited. It is difficult for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability and may require special conditions. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The impact is confined to the system where the vulnerability exists. There is a high impact on the availability of the system.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
Probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days.
