The alignment of u64/i64 on a 32-bit target can be smaller than AtomicU64/AtomicI64.

32-bit targets without Atomic*64 (#767) and 64-bit targets are not affected by this issue.

Were the previous releases yanked because of this? It'd be good to note that in the CHANGELOG under each version yanked for folks looking for more context. Thanks!

Originally I was going to write a security advisory on this, but I was busy with work and it got delayed. (I requested CVE today, so it should be published in the next few days)

That said, I agree that mentioning the yanked version is a good idea (I usually do it on my projects), so I did that in #788.

… versions (#6135)

crossbeam-utils recently patched an unsoundness bug in `AtomicCell` arithmetic: crossbeam-rs/crossbeam#781. However, this patch was not backported to the older versions required by tokio 0.1 and rayon. This PR updates tokio and rayon to the latest available versions to unify our crossbeam dependencies, in particular unifying crossbeam-util to version 0.7.2. In the process, we can verify that we are not affected by the unsoundness bug by attempting a build with crossbeam-util patched to remove AtomicCell arithmetic.

crossbeam-utils recently patched an unsoundness bug in `AtomicCell` arithmetic: crossbeam-rs/crossbeam#781. However, this patch was not backported to the older versions required by tokio 0.1 and rayon. This PR updates tokio and rayon to the latest available versions, allowing some dependencies to upgrade to a safe crossbeam version. However, tokio still remains on a vulnerable version, so manual verification with a patched build was still required to determine that are not affected by the bug.

The notary module had to be modified to remove the `tokio-process` dependency due to the latter's reliance on crossbeam-utils 0.6 (through crossbeam-queue). notary now uses `tokio_threadpool::blocking`.

Hi!

Is there a reason why the 0.7.* versions haven't been yanked? I thought it was because they weren't affected by the issue but looking a bit more closely to the changelog for 0.8.0 I don't see why it would be affected and not the 0.7.* versions.

When browsing the reverse-dependency list on crates.io, there are still quite a few crates that specify a ^0.7.0 dependency. Rust 1.58.1, for instance, had both 0.8.5 and 0.7.2 in its vendored dependency tree.

I thought it was because they weren't affected by the issue but looking a bit more closely to the changelog for 0.8.0 I don't see why it would be affected and not the 0.7.* versions.

As "Affected versions" in the advisory says, 0.7.x releases are also affected. However, in 0.7.0 and older releases, the affected functionality requires the nightly feature. So the only release that is not yanked and still considered affected is 0.7.2.

For the same reason as #749 (comment), we no longer maintain 0.7.x releases. So no backport to 0.7.x has been made. However, if someone sends a backport to the 0.7 branch and also fixes the CI-related issues (which we expect will probably occur), then we can accept it and release a new 0.7.x release.

When browsing the reverse-dependency list on crates.io, there are still quite a few crates that specify a ^0.7.0 dependency.

As far as I know, many of them are crates that are not maintained, or use crossbeam-utils as a dev-dependency.

Rust 1.58.1, for instance, had both 0.8.5 and 0.7.2 in its vendored dependency tree.

That has already been fixed: rust-lang/rust@f3b8812
Also, the rustc's case (rustc-rayon) does not seem to be affected by this issue.

I feel like the 0.7.2 should have been yanked as well, so that people that are indirect consumers lagging a bit behind would have the yanked warning.

Unfortunately, yanking does not actually work that way.
If we yank 0.7.2, a crate that requires crossbeam-utils ^0.7.2 as a dependency will fail to resolve dependencies if Cargo.lock is not yet present.

…-utils

    Specifically, we still rely on crossbeam-utils v0.7.2, which has a known vulnerability fixed in v0.8.7

    It does not seem worth putting more effort into this at this time for two reasons:

    * Using `rote` does not involve connecting to the internet.
    * The vulnerability only affects 32-bit targets according to crossbeam-rs/crossbeam#781 . I'm not running `rote` on any of those at the moment, anyway.

    If `rusttype` releases the fixed version to `crates.io` then running `cargo update` will fix it for me, so I plan to wait until some time after that is released to address this.

Hey @taiki-e could you release the advisory as Public Domain so we can publish this in RustSec ?

rustsec/advisory-db#1203

Or please feel free to send PR to https://github.com/rustsec/advisory-db

EDIT: Oh wait there is CVE-2022-23639 - that we can use - perfect.

Thanks!

Sigh. I thought those were in the public domain.

I re-licensed all advisories in this repository as the public domain.
