Data races in ticketed_lock

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

Package

cargo ticketed_lock (Rust)

Affected versions

< 0.3.0

Patched versions

0.3.0

Description

Affected versions of this crate unconditionally implemented Send for ReadTicket<T> & WriteTicket<T>.
This allows to send non-Send T to other threads.

This can allows creating data races by cloning types with internal mutability and sending them to other threads (as T of ReadTicket<T>/WriteTicket<T>). Such data races can cause memory corruption or other undefined behavior.

The flaw was corrected in commit a986a93 by adding T: Send bounds to Send impls of ReadTicket<T>/WriteTicket<T>.

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.
