CVSS 3.1
9.1 criticalCVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:NCVE-2020-25016
Critical (9.1) in rgb-rust project rgb-rust. EPSS 1.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in rgb 0.8.20.
A safety violation was discovered in the rgb crate before 0.8.20 for Rust, leading to (for example) dereferencing of arbitrary pointers or disclosure of uninitialized memory. This occurs because structs can be treated as bytes for read and write operations.
