CVE-2025-48756
Rust vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

CVE-2025-48756 affects the scsir crate version 0.2.0 for Rust, specifically related to the group_number functionality. The vulnerability was discovered and disclosed on May 23, 2025. The issue involves a potential overflow condition where the group_number parameter doesn't properly validate input values against hardware device limitations (NVD, Wiz).

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the group_number function within the WriteSameCommand implementation. The issue occurs because the code doesn't properly validate input values against hardware device limitations, where some devices may only support a small number of bits (e.g., 5 bits) for the group number. The CVSS 3.1 score is 2.9 (Low) with a vector string of CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L, indicating local access is required and the impact is primarily on availability (NVD, Wiz).

Impact

The vulnerability can lead to an overflow condition when interacting with hardware devices that expect a limited number of bits for the group number parameter. This could potentially result in undefined behavior of the device status (GitHub Issue, Wiz).

Exploitability

The vulnerability requires local access to exploit, with high attack complexity. A proof of concept exists demonstrating how to trigger the overflow by setting the group number to 255, which exceeds the hardware device's bit limitations (GitHub Issue).

Mitigation and workarounds

The recommended mitigation is to mark the affected functions as unsafe since they can lead to undefined behaviors. Additionally, proper input validation should be implemented to ensure the group_number value doesn't exceed the hardware device's specifications (GitHub Issue).
