"The version of the Rack Ruby library installed on the remote host is 3.0.0.beta1 or later but prior to 3.1.21,
or is 3.2.0 or later but prior to 3.2.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:
- Rack::Multipart::Parser#handle_mime_head parses quoted multipart parameters using repeated String#index
searches with String#slice! prefix deletion. For escape-heavy quoted values, this causes super-linear
processing leading to denial of service (CVE-2026-34827)
- Rack::Request parses Host header using AUTHORITY regex accepting characters not permitted in
RFC-compliant hostnames (/, ?, #, @). Applications validating hosts with naive prefix/suffix checks
can be bypassed, leading to host header poisoning (CVE-2026-34835)
- Rack::Utils.forwarded_values parses RFC 7239 Forwarded header by splitting on semicolons before
handling quoted-string values, allowing parameter smuggling (CVE-2026-32762)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
