Sequential calls of encryption API (encrypt, wrap, and dump) result in nonce reuse
Problem: Trying to create a new encrypted message with the same cocoon object generates the same ciphertext. It mostly affects MiniCocoon and Cocoon objects with custom seeds and RNGs (where StdRng is used under the hood).
Note: The issue does NOT affect objects created with Cocoon::new which utilizes ThreadRng.
Cause: StdRng produces the same nonce because StdRng::clone resets its state.
Measure: Make encryption API mutable (encrypt, wrap, and dump).
Workaround: Create a new cocoon object with a new seed per each encryption.
How to Reproduce
Workaround
For cocoon <= 0.3.3, create a new cocoon with a different seed per each encrypt/wrap/dump call.
Пакеты
cocoon
< 0.4.0
0.4.0
Связанные уязвимости
Versions of the package cocoon before 0.4.0 are vulnerable to Reusing a Nonce, Key Pair in Encryption when the encrypt, wrap, and dump functions are sequentially called. An attacker can generate the same ciphertext by creating a new encrypted message with the same cocoon object. **Note:** The issue does NOT affect objects created with Cocoon::new which utilizes ThreadRng.
