Potential vulnerability in fruity crate for Rust: Inadequate validation of filename extensions and potential partial results in NSString conversion

CVE-2021-43620 · HIGH Severity

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N

An issue was discovered in the fruity crate through 0.2.0 for Rust. Security-relevant validation of filename extensions is plausibly affected. Methods of NSString for conversion to a string may return a partial result. Because they call CStr::from_ptr on a pointer to the string buffer, the string is terminated at the first '\0' byte, which might not be the end of the string.
