Vulnerability from github – Published: 2017-10-24 18:33 – Updated: 2023-01-23 20:56

Summary

extlib does not properly restrict casts of string values

Details

The extlib gem 0.9.15 and earlier for Ruby does not properly restrict casts of string values, which might allow remote attackers to conduct object-injection attacks and execute arbitrary code, or cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) by leveraging Action Pack support for (1) YAML type conversion or (2) Symbol type conversion, a similar vulnerability to CVE-2013-0156.
