RUSTSEC-2024-0334:
Rust vulnerability analysis and mitigation
Overview
The RUSTSEC-2024-0334 vulnerability relates to the rust-libp2p-tokio-socks5 crate, which was marked as unmaintained on July 7, 2021. The crate provided TCP/IP transport protocol functionality via a SOCKS5 proxy for libp2p implementations. The last supported version was rust-libp2p v0.34 (GitHub Commit).
Technical details
The rust-libp2p-tokio-socks5 crate implemented the Transport trait from rust-libp2p, specifically designed to redirect traffic over a SOCKS5 proxy. The crate's last version was 0.8.0, released when it was marked as unmaintained (GitHub Commit).
Impact
Projects depending on rust-libp2p-tokio-socks5 for SOCKS5 proxy functionality in their libp2p implementations may face security risks and compatibility issues due to the lack of maintenance and updates. The crate does not receive security updates or compatibility fixes for newer versions of rust-libp2p beyond v0.34 (GitHub Commit).
Mitigation and workarounds
Users of this crate should migrate to alternative maintained SOCKS5 proxy implementations for rust-libp2p or consider taking over maintenance of the crate by contacting the original maintainer at me@tobin.cc (GitHub Commit).
