Aliases: CVE-2020-8185 GHSA-c6qr-h5vq-59jc |
Untrusted users can run pending migrations in production in Rails There is a vulnerability in versions of Rails prior to 6.0.3.2 that allowed an untrusted user to run any pending migrations on a Rails app running in production. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2020-8185. Versions Affected: 6.0.0 < rails < 6.0.3.2 Not affected: Applications with `config.action_dispatch.show_exceptions = false` (this is not a default setting in production) Fixed Versions: rails >= 6.0.3.2 Impact ------ Using this issue, an attacker would be able to execute any migrations that are pending for a Rails app running in production mode. It is important to note that an attacker is limited to running migrations the application developer has already defined in their application and ones that have not already run. Workarounds ----------- Until such time as the patch can be applied, application developers should disable the ActionDispatch middleware in their production environment via a line such as this one in their config/environment/production.rb: `config.middleware.delete ActionDispatch::ActionableExceptions` |

Aliases: CVE-2014-7829 GHSA-h56m-vwxc-3qpw |
Arbitrary file existence disclosure Specially crafted requests can be used to determine whether a file exists on the filesystem that is outside the Rails application's root directory. The files will not be served, but attackers can determine whether the file exists. This only impacts Rails applications that enable static file serving at runtime. For example, the application's production configuration will say: `config.serve_static_assets = true` |

Possible Strong Parameters Bypass in ActionPack There is a strong parameters bypass vector in ActionPack. Versions Affected: rails <= 6.0.3 Not affected: rails < 5.0.0 Fixed Versions: rails >= 5.2.4.3, rails >= 6.0.3.1 Impact ------ In some cases user supplied information can be inadvertently leaked from Strong Parameters. Specifically the return value of `each`, or `each_value`, or `each_pair` will return the underlying "untrusted" hash of data that was read from the parameters. Applications that use this return value may be inadvertently use untrusted user input. Impacted code will look something like this: ``` def update # Attacker has included the parameter: `{ is_admin: true }` User.update(clean_up_params) end def clean_up_params params.each { |k, v| SomeModel.check(v) if k == :name } end ``` Note the mistaken use of `each` in the `clean_up_params` method in the above example. Workarounds ----------- Do not use the return values of `each`, `each_value`, or `each_pair` in your application. |

Rails has possible ReDoS vulnerability in Accept header parsing in Action Dispatch # Possible ReDoS vulnerability in Accept header parsing in Action Dispatch There is a possible ReDoS vulnerability in the Accept header parsing routines of Action Dispatch. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2024-26142. Versions Affected: >= 7.1.0, < 7.1.3.1 Not affected: < 7.1.0 Fixed Versions: 7.1.3.1 Impact ------ Carefully crafted Accept headers can cause Accept header parsing in Action Dispatch to take an unexpected amount of time, possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability.

Possible Content Security Policy bypass in Action Dispatch There is a possible Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the `content_security_policy` helper in Action Pack. Impact ------ Applications which set Content-Security-Policy (CSP) headers dynamically from untrusted user input may be vulnerable to carefully crafted inputs being able to inject new directives into the CSP. This could lead to a bypass of the CSP and its protection against XSS and other attacks. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.

Possible Open Redirect Vulnerability in Action Pack There is a possible Open Redirect Vulnerability in Action Pack. Versions Affected: >= v6.1.0.rc2 Not affected: < v6.1.0.rc2 Fixed Versions: 6.1.3.2 Impact ------ This is similar to CVE-2021-22881. Specially crafted Host headers in combination with certain "allowed host" formats can cause the Host Authorization middleware in Action Pack to redirect users to a malicious website. Since rails/rails@9bc7ea5, strings in config.hosts that do not have a leading dot are converted to regular expressions without proper escaping. This causes, for example, config.hosts << "sub.example.com" to permit a request with a Host header value of sub-example.com. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations. Workarounds ----------- The following monkey patch put in an initializer can be used as a workaround. ```ruby class ActionDispatch::HostAuthorization::Permissions def sanitize_string(host) if host.start_with?(".") /\A(.+\.)?#{Regexp.escape(host[1..-1])}\z/i else /\A#{Regexp.escape host}\z/i end end end ``` Patches ------- To aid users who aren't able to upgrade immediately we have provided patches for the two supported release series. They are in git-am format and consist of a single changeset. * 6-1-open-redirect.patch - Patch for 6.1 series Please note that only the 6.1.Z, 6.0.Z, and 5.2.Z series are supported at present.
