NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rpm-sequoia package and not the rpm-sequoia package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

rust-openssl provides OpenSSL bindings for the Rust programming language. From 0.9.0 to before 0.10.78, the *_from_pem_callback APIs did not validate the length returned by the user's callback. A password callback that returns a value larger than the buffer it was given can cause some versions of OpenSSL to over-read this buffer. OpenSSL 3.x is not affected by this. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.10.78.
