CVE-2026-30960
RSSN has Arbitrary Code Execution via Unvalidated JIT Instruction Generation in C-FFI Interface
Description

rssn is a scientific computing library for Rust, combining a high-performance symbolic computation engine with numerical methods support and physics simulations functionalities. The vulnerability exists in the JIT (Just-In-Time) compilation engine, which is fully exposed via the CFFI (Foreign Function Interface). Due to Improper Input Validation and External Control of Code Generation, an attacker can supply malicious parameters or instruction sequences through the CFFI layer. Since the library often operates with elevated privileges or within high-performance computing contexts, this allows for Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE) at the privilege level of the host process.

CVSS 4.0 CRITICAL [email protected]
Solution
Address improper input validation in the JIT compilation engine to prevent arbitrary code execution.
  • Validate all inputs to the CFFI layer.
  • Sanitize instruction sequences passed to the JIT.
  • Review and restrict code generation parameters.
  • Apply the latest security patches for the library.
