<title>Ruby on Rails: Several vulnerabilities</title>
|
|
<synopsis>
|
|
Ruby on Rails has some weaknesses potentially allowing a Denial of Service
|
|
and maybe the remote execution of arbitrary Ruby scripts.

Ruby on Rails is an open-source web framework.

<p>
|
|
The Ruby on Rails developers have corrected some weaknesses in
|
|
action_controller/, relative to the handling of the user input and the
|
|
LOAD_PATH variable. A remote attacker could inject arbitrary entries
|
|
into the LOAD_PATH variable and alter the main Ruby on Rails process.
|
|
The security hole has only been partly solved in version 1.1.5. Version
|
|
1.1.6 now fully corrects it.

|

<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker that would exploit these weaknesses might cause a
|
|
Denial of Service of the web framework and maybe inject arbitrary Ruby
|
|
scripts.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Ruby on Rails users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-ruby/rails-1.1.6"</code>
|
