Multiple vulnerabilities were found in Ruby on Rails, a MVC ruby-based framework geared for web application development, which could lead to remote code execution and untrusted user input usage, depending on the application.
CVE-2020-8163
A code injection vulnerability in Rails would allow an attacker who controlled the locals
argument of a render
call to perform a RCE.
CVE-2020-8164
A deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability exists in rails which can allow an attacker to supply information can be inadvertently leaked from Strong Parameters.
CVE-2020-8165
A deserialization of untrusted data vulnernerability exists in rails that can allow an attacker to unmarshal user-provided objects in MemCacheStore and RedisCacheStore potentially resulting in an RCE.
For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 2:4.2.7.1-1+deb9u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.
