CVE-2025-6442 1 Ruby-lang 1 Webrick 2025-08-18 N/A 5.9 MEDIUM
Ruby WEBrick read_header HTTP Request Smuggling Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to smuggle arbitrary HTTP requests on affected installations of Ruby WEBrick. This issue is exploitable when the product is deployed behind an HTTP proxy that fulfills specific conditions. The specific flaw exists within the read_headers method. The issue results from the inconsistent parsing of terminators of HTTP headers. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to smuggle arbitrary HTTP requests. Was ZDI-CAN-21876.
CVE-2025-27221 1 Ruby-lang 1 Uri 2025-08-01 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
In the URI gem before 1.0.3 for Ruby, the URI handling methods (URI.join, URI#merge, URI#+) have an inadvertent leakage of authentication credentials because userinfo is retained even after changing the host.
CVE-2021-41819 6 Debian, Fedoraproject, Opensuse and 3 more 9 Debian Linux, Fedora, Factory and 6 more 2025-05-22 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
CGI::Cookie.parse in Ruby through 2.6.8 mishandles security prefixes in cookie names. This also affects the CGI gem through 0.3.0 for Ruby.
CVE-2025-43857 1 Ruby-lang 1 Net\ 2025-05-12 N/A 7.5 HIGH
Net::IMAP implements Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) client functionality in Ruby. Prior to versions 0.5.7, 0.4.20, 0.3.9, and 0.2.5, there is a possibility for denial of service by memory exhaustion when net-imap reads server responses. At any time while the client is connected, a malicious server can send can send a "literal" byte count, which is automatically read by the client's receiver thread. The response reader immediately allocates memory for the number of bytes indicated by the server response. This should not be an issue when securely connecting to trusted IMAP servers that are well-behaved. It can affect insecure connections and buggy, untrusted, or compromised servers (for example, connecting to a user supplied hostname). This issue has been patched in versions 0.5.7, 0.4.20, 0.3.9, and 0.2.5.
CVE-2025-27788 1 Ruby-lang 1 Javascript Object Notation 2025-04-02 N/A 7.5 HIGH
JSON is a JSON implementation for Ruby. Starting in version 2.10.0 and prior to version 2.10.2, a specially crafted document could cause an out of bound read, most likely resulting in a crash. Versions prior to 2.10.0 are not vulnerable. Version 2.10.2 fixes the problem. No known workarounds are available.
CVE-2024-49761 2 Netapp, Ruby-lang 3 Ontap Tools, Rexml, Ruby 2025-03-21 N/A 7.5 HIGH
REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem before 3.3.9 has a ReDoS vulnerability when it parses an XML that has many digits between &# and x...; in a hex numeric character reference (&#x...;). This does not happen with Ruby 3.2 or later. Ruby 3.1 is the only affected maintained Ruby. The REXML gem 3.3.9 or later include the patch to fix the vulnerability.
CVE-2025-27220 1 Ruby-lang 2 Cgi, Ruby 2025-03-05 N/A 7.5 HIGH
In the CGI gem before 0.4.2 for Ruby, a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability exists in the Util#escapeElement method.
CVE-2025-27219 1 Ruby-lang 1 Cgi 2025-03-05 N/A 7.5 HIGH
In the CGI gem before 0.4.2 for Ruby, the CGI::Cookie.parse method in the CGI library contains a potential Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability. The method does not impose any limit on the length of the raw cookie value it processes. This oversight can lead to excessive resource consumption when parsing extremely large cookies.
CVE-2023-28755 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Ruby-lang 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Uri 2025-02-14 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
A ReDoS issue was discovered in the URI component through 0.12.0 in Ruby through 3.2.1. The URI parser mishandles invalid URLs that have specific characters. It causes an increase in execution time for parsing strings to URI objects. The fixed versions are 0.12.1, 0.11.1, 0.10.2 and 0.10.0.1.
CVE-2024-26142 2 Ruby-lang, Rubyonrails 2 Ruby, Rails 2025-02-14 N/A 7.5 HIGH
Rails is a web-application framework. Starting in version 7.1.0, there is a possible ReDoS vulnerability in the Accept header parsing routines of Action Dispatch. This vulnerability is patched in 7.1.3.1. Ruby 3.2 has mitigations for this problem, so Rails applications using Ruby 3.2 or newer are unaffected.
CVE-2024-41946 1 Ruby-lang 1 Rexml 2025-01-17 N/A 7.5 HIGH
REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem 3.3.2 has a DoS vulnerability when it parses an XML that has many entity expansions with SAX2 or pull parser API. The REXML gem 3.3.3 or later include the patch to fix the vulnerability.
CVE-2024-41123 1 Ruby-lang 1 Rexml 2024-12-27 N/A 7.5 HIGH
REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem before 3.3.2 has some DoS vulnerabilities when it parses an XML that has many specific characters such as whitespace character, `>]` and `]>`. The REXML gem 3.3.3 or later include the patches to fix these vulnerabilities.
CVE-2021-31799 3 Debian, Oracle, Ruby-lang 4 Debian Linux, Jd Edwards Enterpriseone Tools, Rdoc and 1 more 2024-10-15 4.4 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
In RDoc 3.11 through 6.x before 6.3.1, as distributed with Ruby through 3.0.1, it is possible to execute arbitrary code via | and tags in a filename.
CVE-2012-5380 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2024-08-06 6.0 MEDIUM N/A
Untrusted search path vulnerability in the installation functionality in Ruby 1.9.3-p194, when installed in the top-level C:\ directory, might allow local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse DLL in the C:\Ruby193\bin directory, which may be added to the PATH system environment variable by an administrator, as demonstrated by a Trojan horse wlbsctrl.dll file used by the "IKE and AuthIP IPsec Keying Modules" system service in Windows Vista SP1, Windows Server 2008 SP2, Windows 7 SP1, and Windows 8 Release Preview. NOTE: CVE disputes this issue because the unsafe PATH is established only by a separate administrative action that is not a default part of the Ruby installation
CVE-2014-2734 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2024-08-06 5.8 MEDIUM N/A
The openssl extension in Ruby 2.x does not properly maintain the state of process memory after a file is reopened, which allows remote attackers to spoof signatures within the context of a Ruby script that attempts signature verification after performing a certain sequence of filesystem operations. NOTE: this issue has been disputed by the Ruby OpenSSL team and third parties, who state that the original demonstration PoC contains errors and redundant or unnecessarily-complex code that does not appear to be related to a demonstration of the issue. As of 20140502, CVE is not aware of any public comment by the original researcher
CVE-2019-11879 1 Ruby-lang 1 Webrick 2024-08-04 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
The WEBrick gem 1.4.2 for Ruby allows directory traversal if the attacker once had local access to create a symlink to a location outside of the web root directory. NOTE: The vendor states that this is analogous to Options FollowSymlinks in the Apache HTTP Server, and therefore it is "not a problem.
CVE-2023-36617 1 Ruby-lang 1 Uri 2024-05-04 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
A ReDoS issue was discovered in the URI component before 0.12.2 for Ruby. The URI parser mishandles invalid URLs that have specific characters. There is an increase in execution time for parsing strings to URI objects with rfc2396_parser.rb and rfc3986_parser.rb. NOTE: this issue exists becuse of an incomplete fix for CVE-2023-28755. Version 0.10.3 is also a fixed version.
CVE-2023-22795 3 Debian, Ruby-lang, Rubyonrails 3 Debian Linux, Ruby, Rails 2024-02-02 N/A 7.5 HIGH
A regular expression based DoS vulnerability in Action Dispatch <6.1.7.1 and <7.0.4.1 related to the If-None-Match header. A specially crafted HTTP If-None-Match header can cause the regular expression engine to enter a state of catastrophic backtracking, when on a version of Ruby below 3.2.0. This can cause the process to use large amounts of CPU and memory, leading to a possible DoS vulnerability All users running an affected release should either upgrade or use one of the workarounds immediately.
CVE-2021-41817 6 Debian, Fedoraproject, Opensuse and 3 more 9 Debian Linux, Fedora, Factory and 6 more 2024-01-24 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH

CVE-2023-28756 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Ruby-lang 4 Debian Linux, Fedora, Ruby and 1 more 2024-01-24 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
A ReDoS issue was discovered in the Time component through 0.2.1 in Ruby through 3.2.1. The Time parser mishandles invalid URLs that have specific characters. It causes an increase in execution time for parsing strings to Time objects. The fixed versions are 0.1.1 and 0.2.2.
