CWE ID 787

Summary

CVE-2023-42443: In versions prior to 0.3.10 of Vyper, the built-ins `raw_call`, `create_from_blueprint`, and `create_copy_of` contain a vulnerability. Under specific conditions, the memory used by these functions can be corrupted, leading to incorrect `calldata` in the sub-context or deploying incorrect bytecode. The memory corruption occurs when complex expressions in the `data`, `value`, or `salt` arguments are used, resulting in writing to memory. No patched version is currently available, and investigations are ongoing to determine if other cases of memory corruption exist. A workaround involves caching complex expressions in memory before calling the built-ins.
