Data races in v9

High severity GitHub Reviewed Published Aug 25, 2021 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Jun 13, 2023

Package

cargo v9 (Rust)

Affected versions

< 0.1.43

Patched versions

0.1.43

Description

Affected versions of this crate unconditionally implement Sync for SyncRef<T>. This definition allows data races if &T is accessible through &SyncRef.

SyncRef<T> derives Clone and Debug, and the default implementations of those traits access &T by invoking T::clone() & T::fmt(). It is possible to create data races & undefined behavior by concurrently invoking SyncRef<T>::clone() or SyncRef<T>::fmt() from multiple threads with T: !Sync.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.

Weaknesses

Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

The product contains a concurrent code sequence that requires temporary, exclusive access to a shared resource, but a timing window exists in which the shared resource can be modified by another code sequence operating concurrently. Learn more on MITRE.
