Summary
linked_list_allocator is an allocator usable for no_std systems. Prior to version 0.10.2, the heap initialization methods were missing a minimum size check for the given heap size argument. This could lead to out-of-bound writes when a heap was initialized with a size smaller than `3 * size_of::<usize>` because of metadata write operations. This vulnerability impacts all the initialization functions on the `Heap` and `LockedHeap` types, including `Heap::new`, `Heap::init`, `Heap::init_from_slice`, and `LockedHeap::new`. It also affects multiple uses of the `Heap::extend` method. Version 0.10.2 contains a patch for the issue. As a workaround, ensure that the heap is only initialized with a size larger than `3 * size_of::<usize>` and that the `Heap::extend` method is only called with sizes larger than `2 * size_of::<usize>()`. Also, ensure that the total heap size is (and stays) a multiple of `2 * size_of::<usize>()`.

Prior to version 0.10.2, the heap initialization methods were missing a minimum size check for the given heap size argument. This could lead to out-of-bound writes when a heap was initialized with a size smaller than `3 * size_of::<usize>` because of metadata write operations. This vulnerability impacts all the initialization functions on the `Heap` and `LockedHeap` types, including `Heap::new`, `Heap::init`, `Heap::init_from_slice`, and `LockedHeap::new`. It also affects multiple uses of the `Heap::extend` method. Version 0.10.2 contains a patch for the issue. As a workaround, ensure that the heap is only initialized with a size larger than `3 * size_of::<usize>` and that the `Heap::extend` method is only called with sizes larger than `2 * size_of::<usize>()`. Also, ensure that the total heap size is (and stays) a multiple of `2 * size_of::<usize>()`.\"},{\"lang\":\"es\",\"value\":\"linked_list_allocator es un asignador usable en sistemas no_std. En versiones anteriores a 0.10.2, los métodos de inicialización de la pila carecían de una comprobación del tamaño mínimo para el argumento del tamaño de la pila. Esto podía conllevar a escrituras fuera de límites cuando una pila es inicializada con un tamaño inferior a \\\"3 * size_of::(usize)\\\" debido a las operaciones de escritura de metadatos. Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a todas las funciones de inicialización de los tipos \\\"Heap\\\" y \\\"LockedHeap\\\", incluyendo \\\"Heap::new\\\", \\\"Heap::init\\\", \\\"Heap::init_from_slice\\\", y \\\"LockedHeap::new\\\". También afecta a múltiples usos del método \\\"Heap::extend\\\". La versión 0.10.2 contiene un parche para este problema. Como mitigación, asegúrese de que la pila sólo es inicializada con un tamaño superior a \\\"3 * size_of::(usize)\\\" y que el método \\\"Heap::extend\\\" sólo es llamado con tamaños superiores a \\\"2 * size_of::(usize)()\\\". Además, asegúrese de que el tamaño total de la pila es (y es mantenido) un múltiplo de \\\"2 * size_of::(usize)()\\\"\"}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H\",\"baseScore\":8.4,\"baseSeverity\":\"HIGH\",\"attackVector\":\"LOCAL\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"NONE\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"integrityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":2.5,\"impactScore\":5.9},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H\",\"baseScore\":9.8,\"baseSeverity\":\"CRITICAL\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"NONE\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"integrityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":3.9,\"impactScore\":5.9}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-119\"},{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-787\"}]},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-1284\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:rust-osdev:linked-list-allocator:*:*:*:*:*:rust:*:*\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"0.10.2\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"D1EB783F-18F3-471C-8006-9949D06163C3\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://github.com/rust-osdev/linked-list-allocator/commit/013b0758643943e8df5b17bbb495460ff47e8bbf\",\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/rust-osdev/linked-list-allocator/security/advisories/GHSA-xg8p-34w2-j49j\",\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"tags\":[\"Exploit\",\"Mitigation\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/rust-osdev/linked-list-allocator/commit/013b0758643943e8df5b17bbb495460ff47e8bbf\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/rust-osdev/linked-list-allocator/security/advisories/GHSA-xg8p-34w2-j49j\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Exploit\",\"Mitigation\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]}]}}",
