Cipher.update_into can corrupt memory if passed an immutable python object as the outbuf
Previously, Cipher.update_into
would accept Python objects which implement the buffer protocol, but provide only immutable buffers:
This would allow immutable objects (such as bytes
) to be mutated, thus violating fundamental rules of Python. This is a soundness bug -- it allows programmers to misuse an API, it cannot be exploited by attacker controlled data alone.
This now correctly raises an exception.
This issue has been present since update_into
was originally introduced in cryptography 1.8.

cryptography is a package designed to expose cryptographic primitives and recipes to Python developers. In affected versions `Cipher.update_into` would accept Python objects which implement the buffer protocol, but provide only immutable buffers. This would allow immutable objects (such as `bytes`) to be mutated, thus violating fundamental rules of Python and resulting in corrupted output. This now correctly raises an exception. This issue has been present since `update_into` was originally introduced in cryptography 1.8.
