Vyper is a Pythonic smart contract language for the Ethereum virtual machine. Prior to version 0.3.8, during codegen, the length word of a dynarray is written before the data, which can result in out-of-bounds array access in the case where the dynarray is on both the lhs and rhs of an assignment. The issue can cause data corruption across call frames. The expected behavior is to revert due to out-of-bounds array access. Version 0.3.8 contains a patch for this issue.

Vyper vulnerable to OOB DynArray access when array is on both LHS and RHS of an assignment

CVE-2023-31146 [HIGH] CWE-787 Vyper vulnerable to OOB DynArray access when array is on both LHS and RHS of an assignment
Vyper vulnerable to OOB DynArray access when array is on both LHS and RHS of an assignment
### Impact
during codegen, the length word of a dynarray is written before the data, which can result in OOB array access in the case where the dynarray is on both the lhs and rhs of an assignment. here is a minimal example producing the issue:
```vyper
a:DynArray[uint256,3]
@external
def test() -> DynArray[uint256,3]:
self.a = [1,2,3]
self.a = empty(DynArray[uint256,3])
self.a = [self.a[0],self.a[1],self.a[2]]
return self.a # return [1,2,3]
```
and here is an example demonstrating the issue can cause data corruption across call frames:
```vyper
@external
def test() -> DynArray[uint256,3]:
self.a()
return self.b() # return [1,2,3]
@internal
def a():
a: uint256 = 0
b: uint256 = 1
c: uint256 = 2
