QID 996479: Rust (Rust) Security Update for vmm-sys-util (GHSA-875g-mfp6-g7f9)

An issue was discovered in the FamStructWrapper::deserialize implementation provided by the crate for vmm_sys_util::fam::FamStructWrapper, which can lead to out of bounds memory accesses. The deserialization does not check that the length stored in the header matches the flexible array length. Mismatch in the lengths might allow out of bounds memory access through Rust-safe methods.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a security breach or could affect integrity, availability, and confidentiality.

CVSS V3 rated as Medium - 5.7 severity.

CVSS V2 rated as Medium - 5.4 severity.
