Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests

EUVDB-ID: #VU98142

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 1.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47220

CWE-ID: CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request Smuggling')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request containing both a Content-Length header and a Transfer-Encoding header to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.

Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.

Mitigation

Update the affected package ruby2.5 to the latest version.

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) Inefficient regular expression complexity

EUVDB-ID: #VU99358

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-49761

CWE-ID: CWE-1333 - Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when parsing an XML that has many digits between &# and x...; in a hex numeric character reference (&#x...;). A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.

Mitigation

Update the affected package ruby2.5 to the latest version.
