Summary
Matt Mastracci discovered that rust-openssl was incorrectly handling server
lifetimes in certain functions. An attacker could possibly use this issue
to cause a denial of service or run arbitrary memory content to the client.
(CVE-2025-24898)
It was discovered that rust-openssl was incorrectly handling empty strings
when setting the host in certain functions. An attacker could possibly use
this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2023-53159)
It was discovered that rust-openssl was incorrectly handling property
arguments in certain functions. An attacker could possibly use this

Medium 6.3
rust openssl ssl::select_next_proto use after free
rust-openssl is a set of OpenSSL bindings for the Rust programming language. In affected versions `ssl::select_next_proto` can return a slice pointing into the `server` argument's buffer but with a lifetime bound to the `client` argument. In situations where …

Medium 4.5
`openssl` `X509VerifyParamRef::set_host` buffer over-read
The openssl crate before 0.10.55 for Rust allows an out-of-bounds read via an empty string to X509VerifyParamRef::set_host.

Rust-openssl: rust-openssl use-after-free in `md::fetch` and `cipher::fetch`
A flaw was found in OpenSSL's handling of the properties argument in certain functions. This vulnerability can allow use-after-free exploitation, which may result in undefined behavior or incorrect property parsing, leading to OpenSSL treating the input as an…
