ruby: FTP PASV command response can cause Net::FTP to connect to arbitrary host

Ruby's Net::FTP module trusted the IP address included in the FTP server's response to the PASV command. A malicious FTP server could use this to make Ruby applications using the Net::FTP module to connect to arbitrary hosts and use this to perform port scanning or information extraction from...

ruby: XML round-trip vulnerability in REXML

A flaw was found in the way the Ruby REXML library parsed XML documents. Parsing a specially crafted XML document using REXML and writing parsed data back to a new XML document results in creating a document with a different structure. This issue could affect the integrity of processed data in...

ruby: Arbitrary heap exposure during a JSON.generate call

A buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the JSON extension of ruby. An attacker with the ability to pass a specially crafted JSON input to the extension could use this flaw to expose the interpreter's heap memory...

ruby: HTTP response splitting in WEBrick

Ruby through 2.4.7, 2.5.x through 2.5.6, and 2.6.x through 2.6.4 allows HTTP Response Splitting. If a program using WEBrick inserts untrusted input into the response header, an attacker can exploit it to insert a newline character to split a header, and inject malicious content to deceive clients...

ruby: Properly initialize the random number generator when forking new process

The SecureRandom.randombytes function in lib/securerandom.rb in Ruby before 1.8.7-p352 and 1.9.x before 1.9.2-p290 relies on PID values for initialization, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to predict the result string by leveraging knowledge of random strings obtained in an...

ruby: use of predictable source port and transaction id in DNS requests done by resolv.rb module

resolv.rb in Ruby 1.8.5 and earlier, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p287, 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p72, and 1.9 r18423 and earlier uses sequential transaction IDs and constant source ports for DNS requests, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof DNS responses, a different vulnerability than...

ruby: WEBrick DoS vulnerability (CPU consumption)

Algorithmic complexity vulnerability in the WEBrick::HTTPUtils.splitheadervalue function in WEBrick::HTTP::DefaultFileHandler in WEBrick in Ruby 1.8.5 and earlier, 1.8.6 through 1.8.6-p286, 1.8.7 through 1.8.7-p71, and 1.9 through r18423 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of...

ruby: integer overflow in rb_ary_splice/update/replace() - beg + rlen

Integer overflow in the 1 rbarysplice function in Ruby 1.8.4 and earlier, 1.8.5 before 1.8.5-p231, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p230, 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p22, and 1.9.0 before 1.9.0-2; and 2 the rbaryreplace function in 1.6.x allows context-dependent attackers to trigger memory corruption, aka the "beg +...

ruby: Arbitrary memory address read vulnerability with Regex search

A flaw was found in Ruby. If attacker-supplied data is provided to the Ruby regex compiler, it is possible to extract arbitrary heap data relative to the start of the text, including pointers and sensitive strings...

ruby: REXML incomplete fix for CVE-2014-8080

The REXML parser in Ruby 1.9.x before 1.9.3 patchlevel 551, 2.0.x before 2.0.0 patchlevel 598, and 2.1.x before 2.1.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service CPU and memory consumption a crafted XML document containing an empty string in an entity that is used in a large number of...

ruby: integer overflow in rb_ary_splice/update/replace() - REALLOC_N

Integer overflow in the 1 rbarysplice function in Ruby 1.8.4 and earlier, 1.8.5 before 1.8.5-p231, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p230, and 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p22; and 2 the rbaryreplace function in 1.6.x allows context-dependent attackers to trigger memory corruption via unspecified vectors, aka the...

ruby: Properly initialize the random number generator when forking new process

Ruby before 1.8.7-p352 does not reset the random seed upon forking, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to predict the values of random numbers by leveraging knowledge of the number sequence obtained in a different child process, a related issue to CVE-2003-0900. NOTE: this issu...

ruby: SMTP command injection via CRLF sequences in RCPT TO or MAIL FROM commands in Net::SMTP

A SMTP command injection flaw was found in the way Ruby's Net::SMTP module handled CRLF sequences in certain SMTP commands. An attacker could potentially use this flaw to inject SMTP commands in a SMTP session in order to facilitate phishing attacks or spam campaigns...

ruby: Cookie prefix spoofing in CGI::Cookie.parse

A flaw was found in Ruby. RubyGems cgi gem could allow a remote attacker to conduct spoofing attacks caused by the mishandling of security prefixes in cookie names in the CGI::Cookie.parse function. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could perform cookie prefix spoofing attacks...

ruby: REXML billion laughs attack via parameter entity expansion

The REXML parser in Ruby 1.9.x before 1.9.3-p550, 2.0.x before 2.0.0-p594, and 2.1.x before 2.1.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service memory consumption via a crafted XML document, aka an XML Entity Expansion XEE attack...

ruby: Murmur hash-flooding DoS flaw in ruby 1.9 (oCERT-2012-001)

Ruby aka CRuby 1.9 before 1.9.3-p327 and 2.0 before r37575 computes hash values without properly restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via crafted input to an application that maintains...

ruby: Properly initialize the random number generator when forking new process

Ruby before 1.8.6-p114 does not reset the random seed upon forking, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to predict the values of random numbers by leveraging knowledge of the number sequence obtained in a different child process, a related issue to CVE-2003-0900...
