8.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Details

Vyper is a Pythonic Smart Contract Language for the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). In version 0.3.9 and prior, under certain conditions, the memory used by the builtins raw_call, create_from_blueprint and create_copy_of can be corrupted. For raw_call, the argument buffer of the call can be corrupted, leading to incorrect calldata in the sub-context. For create_from_blueprint and create_copy_of, the buffer for the to-be-deployed bytecode can be corrupted, leading to deploying incorrect bytecode.

Each builtin has conditions that must be fulfilled for the corruption to happen. For raw_call, the data argument of the builtin must be msg.data and the value or gas passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory. For create_copy_of, the value or salt passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory. For create_from_blueprint, either no constructor parameters should be passed to the builtin or raw_args should be set to True, and the value or salt passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory.

As of time of publication, no patched version exists. The issue is still being investigated, and there might be other cases where the corruption might happen. When the builtin is being called from an internal function F, the issue is not present provided that the function calling F wrote to memory before calling F. As a workaround, the complex expressions that are being passed as kwargs to the builtin should be cached in memory prior to the call to the builtin.

Summary

Vyper vulnerable to memory corruption in certain builtins utilizing `msize`

Details

Impact

In certain conditions, the memory used by the builtins raw_call, create_from_blueprint and create_copy_of can be corrupted.

For raw_call, the argument buffer of the call can be corrupted, leading to incorrect calldata in the sub-context.
For create_from_blueprint and create_copy_of, the buffer for the to-be-deployed bytecode can be corrupted, leading to deploying incorrect bytecode.

Below are the conditions that must be fulfilled for the corruption to happen for each builtin:

`raw_call`

memory is not fully initialized, ex. all parameters to an external function live in calldata and
The data argument of the builtin is msg.data. and
The to, value or gas passed to the builtin is some complex expression that results in writing to uninitialized memory (e.g. calling an internal function)

`create_copy_of`

memory is not fully initialized, ex. all parameters to an external function live in calldata and
The value or salt passed to the builtin is some complex expression that results in writing to uninitialized memory (e.g. calling an internal function)

`create_from_blueprint`

memory is not fully initialized, ex. all parameters to an external function live in calldata and
Either no constructor parameters are passed to the builtin or raw_args is set to True. and
The value or salt passed to the builtin is some complex expression that results in writing to uninitialized memory (e.g. calling an internal function)

Note: When the builtin is being called from an internal function f from a function g, the issue is not present provided that g has written to memory before calling f.

Examples

`raw_call`

In the following contract, calling bar(1,1) will return:

Python ae42e95100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff00000001 instead of: Python ae42e95100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

```Python identity: constant(address) = 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000004

@external def foo(): pass

@internal @view def get_address()->address: a:uint256 = max_value(uint256) # 0xfff...fff return identity @external def bar(f:uint256, u:uint256) -> Bytes[100]: a: Bytes[100] = raw_call(self.get_address(), msg.data, max_outsize=100) return a ```

`create_copy_of`

In the following contract, after calling test(), the code deployed at self.created_address does not match the bytecode at target.

``` Vyper created_address: public(address)

@external def test(target: address) -> address: # The expression in salt= is complex and will require to store to memory self.created_address = create_copy_of(target, salt = keccak256(_abi_encode(target))) return self.created_address ```

`create_from_blueprint`

In the following contract, after calling test(), the init bytecode used to create the contract deployed at the address self.created_address will not match the blueprint bytecode stored at target.

``` Vyper created_address: public(address)

salt: constant(bytes32) = keccak256("kebab")

@external @payable def test(target: address): # The expression in salt= is complex and will require to store to memory self.created_address = create_from_blueprint(target, code_offset=0, salt=keccak256(_abi_encode(target))) ```

Patches

issue tracking in https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper/issues/3609, patched in #3610

Workarounds

The complex expressions that are being passed as kwargs to the builtin should be cached in memory prior to the call to the builtin. For the last example above, it would be:

``` Vyper created_address: public(address)

salt: constant(bytes32) = keccak256("kebab")

@external @payable def test(target: address): salt: bytes32 = keccak256(_abi_encode(target)) self.created_address = create_from_blueprint(target, code_offset=0, salt=salt) ```

Summary

Vyper is a Pythonic Smart Contract Language for the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). In version 0.3.9 and prior, under certain conditions, the memory used by the builtins `raw_call`, `create_from_blueprint` and `create_copy_of` can be corrupted. For `raw_call`, the argument buffer of the call can be corrupted, leading to incorrect `calldata` in the sub-context. For `create_from_blueprint` and `create_copy_of`, the buffer for the to-be-deployed bytecode can be corrupted, leading to deploying incorrect bytecode. Each builtin has conditions that must be fulfilled for the corruption to happen. For `raw_call`, the `data` argument of the builtin must be `msg.data` and the `value` or `gas` passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory. For `create_copy_of`, the `value` or `salt` passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory. For `create_from_blueprint`, either no constructor parameters should be passed to the builtin or `raw_args` should be set to True, and the `value` or `salt` passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory. As of time of publication, no patched version exists. The issue is still being investigated, and there might be other cases where the corruption might happen. When the builtin is being called from an `internal` function `F`, the issue is not present provided that the function calling `F` wrote to memory before calling `F`. As a workaround, the complex expressions that are being passed as kwargs to the builtin should be cached in memory prior to the call to the builtin.

          "value": "Vyper is a Pythonic Smart Contract Language for the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). In version 0.3.9 and prior, under certain conditions, the memory used by the builtins `raw_call`, `create_from_blueprint` and `create_copy_of` can be corrupted. For `raw_call`, the argument buffer of the call can be corrupted, leading to incorrect `calldata` in the sub-context. For `create_from_blueprint` and `create_copy_of`, the buffer for the to-be-deployed bytecode can be corrupted, leading to deploying incorrect bytecode.\n\nEach builtin has conditions that must be fulfilled for the corruption to happen. For `raw_call`, the `data` argument of the builtin must be `msg.data` and the `value` or `gas` passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory. For `create_copy_of`, the `value` or `salt` passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory. For `create_from_blueprint`, either no constructor parameters should be passed to the builtin or `raw_args` should be set to True, and the `value` or `salt` passed to the builtin must be some complex expression that results in writing to the memory.\n\nAs of time of publication, no patched version exists. The issue is still being investigated, and there might be other cases where the corruption might happen. When the builtin is being called from an `internal` function `F`, the issue is not present provided that the function calling `F` wrote to memory before calling `F`. As a workaround, the complex expressions that are being passed as kwargs to the builtin should be cached in memory prior to the call to the builtin."
