CVE-2026-22700

RustCrypto: Elliptic Curves is general purpose Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) support, including types and traits for representing various elliptic curve forms, scalars, points, and public/secret keys composed thereof. In versions 0.14.0-pre.0 and 0.14.0-rc.0, a denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the SM2 public-key encryption (PKE) implementation: the decrypt() path performs unchecked slice::split_at operations on input buffers derived from untrusted ciphertext. An attacker can submit short/undersized ciphertext or carefully-crafted DER-encoded structures to trigger bounds-check panics (Rust unwinding) which crash the calling thread or process. This issue has been patched via commit e60e991.

Summary
  • (es) RustCrypto: Curvas Elípticas es soporte de Criptografía de Curva Elíptica (ECC) de propósito general, incluyendo tipos y rasgos para representar varias formas de curvas elípticas, escalares, puntos y claves públicas/secretas compuestas de ellos. En las versiones 0.14.0-pre.0 y 0.14.0-rc.0, existe una vulnerabilidad de denegación de servicio en la implementación de cifrado (PKE) de clave pública SM2: la ruta decrypt() realiza operaciones slice::split_at sin verificar en búferes de entrada derivados de texto cifrado no confiable. Un atacante puede enviar texto cifrado corto/subdimensionado o estructuras codificadas en DER cuidadosamente elaboradas para activar pánicos de verificación de límites (desenrolle de Rust) que bloquean el hilo o proceso que realiza la llamada. Este problema ha sido parcheado mediante el commit e60e991.
