Vulnerabilities

An issue was discovered in the rio crate through 2020-05-11 for Rust. A struct can be leaked, allowing attackers to obtain sensitive information, cause a use-after-free, or cause a data race.

In vm-superio before 0.1.1, the serial console FIFO can grow to unlimited memory usage when data is sent to the input source (i.e., standard input). This behavior cannot be reproduced from the guest side. When no rate limiting is in place, the host can be subject to memory pressure, impacting all other VMs running on the same host.
