Ecosystem-wide dependent count for version 0.13.10.
DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Yamux is a stream multiplexer over reliable, ordered connections such as TCP/IP. Prior to 0.13.10, the Rust implementation of Yamux can panic when processing a crafted inbound Data frame that sets SYN and uses a body length greater than DEFAULT_CREDIT (e.g. 262145). On the first packet of a new inbound stream, stream state is created and a receiver is queued before oversized-body validation completes. When validation fails, the temporary stream is dropped and cleanup may call remove(...).expect("stream not found"), triggering a panic in the connection state machine. This is remotely reachable over a normal Yamux session and does not require authentication. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.13.10.
AnalysisAI
Rust Yamux prior to version 0.13.10 is vulnerable to denial of service when processing specially crafted inbound stream frames that combine the SYN flag with oversized body lengths, causing the connection handler to panic due to improper state cleanup. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger this panic over any normal Yamux session without special privileges, crashing affected applications. No patch is currently available for this high-severity vulnerability.
Technical ContextAI
Yamux is a stream multiplexing protocol library that enables multiple logical streams over a single reliable connection like TCP/IP, commonly used in peer-to-peer and distributed systems. The vulnerability stems from improper error handling (CWE-248) in the Rust implementation where the code fails to properly validate oversized Data frames before creating stream state. When an inbound Data frame sets the SYN flag and includes a body length exceeding DEFAULT_CREDIT (262145 bytes), the implementation creates temporary stream state and queues a receiver before completing validation. When validation subsequently fails, cleanup code calls remove().expect() on a stream that was never fully established, causing a panic in the connection state machine.
RemediationAI
The primary remediation is to upgrade the Yamux Rust library to version 0.13.10 or later, which contains the fix for this vulnerability. Development teams should update their Cargo.toml dependencies to specify yamux = "0.13.10" or higher and rebuild affected applications. As a temporary mitigation, consider implementing connection rate limiting and monitoring for unusual connection patterns that could indicate exploitation attempts. Network segmentation to limit exposure of services using Yamux to untrusted networks can also reduce attack surface until patching is complete.
