Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-19 19:35 – Updated: 2026-06-19 19:35Summary
Oj.load in :object mode reads uninitialized stack memory (and, for long
keys, reads out of bounds) when parsing a JSON object whose key is 254 bytes
or longer. The interned bytes can surface to the caller, disclosing process
stack memory.
Details
In ext/oj/intern.c, form_attr() handles the long-key path by allocating a
heap buffer b, populating it with the attribute name, and then freeing it —
but it passed the uninitialized stack buffer buf (not b) to
rb_intern3():
static VALUE form_attr(const char *str, size_t len) {
char buf[256];
if (sizeof(buf) - 2 <= len) { // long-key path (len >= 254)
char *b = OJ_R_ALLOC_N(char, len + 2);
// ... b is filled correctly ...
id = rb_intern3(buf, len + 1, oj_utf8_encoding); // BUG: reads `buf`
OJ_R_FREE(b);
return id;
}
// ...
}
rb_intern3 therefore reads len + 1 bytes of uninitialized stack memory.
When the key length is >= 256, it also reads out of bounds past the 256-byte
buf (CWE-125). The resulting bytes are interned and can reach the caller via
the produced Symbol or via the EncodingError message raised on invalid
UTF-8, leaking process stack contents.
This is the same defect previously fixed in ext/oj/usual.c; intern.c held
a duplicated copy of form_attr that was missed.
Proof of Concept
require 'oj'
key = "A" * 300
json = %Q[{"^o":"Object","#{key}":1}]
Oj.load(json, mode: :object)
On affected versions this raises an EncodingError whose message contains
~1500 bytes of uninitialized stack memory (not the supplied "A"s). The leaked
byte count varies between runs with the identical payload (e.g. 1491 vs 1516
bytes), confirming the content is uninitialized memory rather than fixed data.
Impact
Information disclosure of process stack memory to a caller that parses
untrusted JSON with Oj.load(..., mode: :object). For keys >= 256 bytes it is
also an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125).
Severity is bounded by several preconditions: it requires :object mode
(which is already discouraged for untrusted input), the leaked bytes are
uncontrolled (the attacker cannot choose what is disclosed), and the data only
reaches an attacker if the application surfaces the resulting Symbol or
EncodingError back to them. Scored CVSS 5.3 (Medium) on that basis.
Patches
Fixed in 3.17.3: form_attr() now passes b to rb_intern3 (a
one-character change mirroring the earlier usual.c fix). Verified on the
fixed build: the same payload returns cleanly with no leak across repeated
runs.

This leads to undefined behavior when functions like write_slices create typed slices (e.g., &mut [bool]) over the uninitialized memory, violating Rust's validity invariants. The issue has been confirmed using Miri.
Fixed in version 0.2.2 by using resize_with to properly initialize the buffer with T::default(), adding a T: Default bound to ensure sound initialization.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-04-16 15:34 – Updated: 2025-11-03 18:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix to avoid accessing uninitialized curseg
syzbot reports a f2fs bug as below:

Commit 8b10d3653735 ("f2fs: introduce FAULT_NO_SEGMENT") allows to trigger no free segment fault in allocator, then it will update curseg->segno to NULL_SEGNO, though, CP_ERROR_FLAG has been set, f2fs_write_inode() missed to check the flag, and access invalid curseg->segno directly in below call path, then resulting in panic:
- f2fs_write_inode
- f2fs_is_checkpoint_ready
- has_enough_free_secs
- has_not_enough_free_secs
- __get_secs_required
- has_curseg_enough_space
- get_ckpt_valid_blocks : access invalid curseg->segno
To avoid this issue, let's: - check CP_ERROR_FLAG flag in prior to f2fs_is_checkpoint_ready() in f2fs_write_inode(). - in has_curseg_enough_space(), save curseg->segno into a temp variable, and verify its validation before use.

Mitigation
Explicitly initialize the resource before use. If this is performed through an API function or standard procedure, follow all required steps.
Mitigation
Pay close attention to complex conditionals that affect initialization, since some branches might not perform the initialization.
Mitigation
Avoid race conditions (CWE-362) during initialization routines.
Mitigation
Run or compile the product with settings that generate warnings about uninitialized variables or data.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
