Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for rust-vm-memory.
CVE-2023-41051[0]:
| In a typical Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) there are several
| components, such as boot loader, virtual device drivers, virtio
| backend drivers and vhost drivers, that need to access the VM
| physical memory. The vm-memory rust crate provides a set of traits
| to decouple VM memory consumers from VM memory providers. An issue
| was discovered in the default implementations of the
| `VolatileMemory::{get_atomic_ref, aligned_as_ref, aligned_as_mut,
| get_ref, get_array_ref}` trait functions, which allows out-of-bounds
| memory access if the `VolatileMemory::get_slice` function returns a
| `VolatileSlice` whose length is less than the function’s `count`
| argument. No implementations of `get_slice` provided in `vm_memory`
| are affected. Users of custom `VolatileMemory` implementations may
| be impacted if the custom implementation does not adhere to
| `get_slice`'s documentation. The issue started in version 0.1.0 but
| was fixed in version 0.12.2 by inserting a check that verifies that
| the `VolatileSlice` returned by `get_slice` is of the correct
| length. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds
| for this issue.
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
