RUSTSEC-2025-0027:
Rust vulnerability analysis and mitigation
Overview
A vulnerability was discovered in the mp3-metadata Rust crate (RUSTSEC-2025-0027) that causes unexpected program panics when processing malformed MP3 files. The issue was identified through fuzzing testing using afl.rs and affects the latest version of the package as of April 2025 (MP3 Issue).
Technical details
The vulnerability manifests as an index out of bounds panic in the metadata processing code at src/metadata.rs:100:22. The issue occurs when the crate attempts to access an array index of 0 on a zero-length buffer. The bug was discovered through AFL fuzzing with specific malformed input data that triggers the panic condition (MP3 Issue).
Impact
When exploited, this vulnerability causes the application to panic and terminate unexpectedly. This could potentially be used as a vector for denial of service attacks in applications that process MP3 files using this crate (MP3 Issue).
Mitigation and workarounds
As of the initial report, no official patch has been released. Users of the mp3-metadata crate should implement input validation and error handling mechanisms to gracefully handle potential panics when processing MP3 files (MP3 Issue).
