Details

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Foxit Reader 8.3.1.21155. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the setFocus method of XFAScriptObject objects. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a type confusion condition. An attacker can leverage this to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-5022.

Summary
DynFuture Drop Can Construct a Dangling Reference
Details

DynFuture is unsound because its Drop implementation transmutes a trait-object reference into unrelated reference types, which constructs an invalid reference from trait object metadata.

This issue was reproduced against dyn-future 3.0.4 under Miri. The crate is unmaintained.
