    Insufficient covariance check makes self_cell unsound

    GHSA-48m6-wm5p-rr6h

    Affected
    • crates.io self_cell < 0.10.3; >= 1.0.0, < 1.0.2
    Fixed in
    1.0.20.10.3· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    All public versions prior to 1.02 used an insufficient check to ensure that users correctly marked the dependent type as either covariant or notcovariant. This allowed users to mark a dependent as covariant even though its type was not covariant but invariant, for certain invariant types involving trait object lifetimes. One example for such a dependent type is type Dependent<'a = RefCell<Box<dyn fmt::Display + 'a. Such a type allowed unsound usage in purely safe user code that leads to undefined behavior. The patched versions now produce a compile time error if such a type is marked as covariant.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.0.2 or 0.10.3 by release line, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
