If the message data first contains the non-pointer field and then the pointer field, the data of the non-pointer field is incorrectly treated as if it was a pointer value. Such message data rarely occurs in normal messages, but it is a concern when untrusted data is parsed.\n\n### Patches\nPreliminary patch is available on git for [0.4.x](https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/commit/e2f0ccf939d9f82931d085acb6df8e9a182a4261) and [0.3.x](https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/commit/4a375a560651a86726e5283be85a9231fd0efe9c) branches. The fix will be released in versions 0.3.9.8 and 0.4.5 once testing has been completed.\n\n### Workarounds\nFollowing workarounds are available:\n* Set the option `no_unions` for the oneof field. This will generate fields as separate instead of C union, and avoids triggering the problematic code.\n* Set the type of all fields inside the oneof to `FT_POINTER`. This ensures that the data contained inside the `union` is always a valid pointer.\n* Heap implementations that guard against invalid `free()` provide a partial mitigation. Depending on the message type, the pointer value may be attacker controlled and can be used to bypass heap protections.\n\n### References\nBug report: https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/issues/647\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory, comment on the bug report linked above.", + "severity": [ + { + "type": "CVSS_V3", + "score": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L" + }, + { + "type": "CVSS_V4", + "score": "CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N" + } + ], + "affected": [ + { + "package": { + "ecosystem": "PyPI", + "name": "nanopb" + }, + "ranges": [ + { + "type": "ECOSYSTEM", + "events": [ + { + "introduced": "0.3.2" + }, + { + "fixed": "0.3.9.8" + } + ] + } + ] + }, + { + "package": { + "ecosystem": "PyPI", + "name": "nanopb" + }, + "ranges": [ + { + "type": "ECOSYSTEM", + "events": [ + { + "introduced": "0.4.0" + }, + { + "fixed": "0.4.5" + } + ] + } + ] + } + ], + "references": [ + { + "type": "WEB", + "url": "https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/security/advisories/GHSA-7mv5-5mxh-qg88" + }, + { + "type": "ADVISORY", + "url": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-21401" + }, + { + "type": "WEB", + "url": "https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/issues/647" + }, + { + "type": "WEB", + "url": "https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/commit/4a375a560651a86726e5283be85a9231fd0efe9c" + }, + { + "type": "WEB", + "url": "https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/commit/e2f0ccf939d9f82931d085acb6df8e9a182a4261" + }, + { + "type": "PACKAGE", + "url": "https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb" + }, + { + "type": "WEB", + "url": "https://github.com/nanopb/nanopb/blob/c9124132a604047d0ef97a09c0e99cd9bed2c818/CHANGELOG.txt#L1" + }, + { + "type": "WEB", + "url": "https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/tree/main/vulns/nanopb/PYSEC-2021-432.yaml" + } + ], + "database_specific": { + "cwe_ids": [ + "CWE-763" + ], + "severity": "HIGH", + "github_reviewed": true, + "github_reviewed_at": "2024-08-30T18:45:41Z", + "nvd_published_at": "2021-03-23T18:15:00Z" + } +} \ No newline at end of file
