Multiple implementations -- DoS via hash algorithm collision

oCERT reports: A variety of programming languages suffer from a denial-of-service DoS condition against storage functions of key/value pairs in hash data structures, the condition can be leveraged by exploiting predictable collisions in the underlying hashing algorithms. The issue finds particula...

jruby: XSS in the regular expression engine when processing invalid UTF-8 byte sequences

The regular expression engine in JRuby before 1.4.1, when $KCODE is set to 'u', does not properly handle characters immediately after a UTF-8 character, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting XSS attacks via a crafted string...

jruby-openssl Gem for JRuby fails to do proper certificate validation

A security problem involving peer certificate verification was found where failed verification silently did nothing, making affected applications vulnerable to attackers. Attackers could lead a client application to believe that a secure connection to a rogue SSL server is legitimate. Attackers...
