CVE-2024-32650

Summary

rustls::ConnectionCommon::complete_io could fall into an infinite loop based on network input.

Details

Verified at 0.22 and 0.23 rustls, but 0.21 and 0.20 release lines are also affected.

When using a blocking rustls server, if a client send a close_notify message immediately after client_hello, the server's complete_io will get in an infinite loop where:

• eof: false
• until_handshaked: true
• self.is_handshaking(): true
• self.wants_write(): false
• self.wants_read(): false

PoC

1. Run simple server: cargo run --bin simpleserver test-ca/rsa/end.fullchain test-ca/rsa/end.key
2. Run following python script

   #!/usr/bin/env python3
   
   import socket
   
   sock = socket.socket()
   sock.connect(("localhost", 4443))
   
   print("Sending client hello...")
   
   # Fake handshake data of a client hello message.
   fake_handshake = """

3. You could observe the server process get into 100% cpu usage, and if you add logging at beginning of rustls::conn::ConnectionCommon::complete_io, you could see the function is spinning.

Also note that the server thread is stuck in this infinite loop even if the client closes the socket.

Impact

This is a DOS.

A multithread non-async server that uses rustls could be attacked by getting few requests like above (each request could cause one thread to spin) and stop handling normal requests.
