Ruby is an interpreted scripting language for quick and easy
|
||
|
|
object-oriented programming. It comes bundled with HTTP ("WEBrick") and
|
||
|
|
XMLRPC server objects.

<description>
|

|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Ruby uses blocking sockets for WEBrick and XMLRPC servers.

<impact type="normal">
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
An attacker could send large amounts of data to an affected server
|
||
|
|
to block the socket and thus deny other connections to the server.
|
||
|

<workaround>
