Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-10-22 21:47 – Updated: 2025-10-22 21:47
VLAI?
Summary
binary_vec_io access memory out-of-bounds in binary_read_to_ref and binary_write_from_ref
Details

Safe functions accept a single &T or &mut T but multiply by n to create slices extending beyond allocated memory when n > 1.

These functions use from_raw_parts to create slices larger than the underlying allocation, violating memory safety.

The binary_vec_io repository is archived and unmaintained.

Severity ?
7.3 (High)
CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P
