Vulnerability Summary Fixed by
VCID-b36p-re17-n7dq
Aliases:
CVE-2017-0900
GHSA-p7f2-rr42-m9xm
Improper Input Validation RubyGems is vulnerable to maliciously crafted gem specifications to cause a denial of service attack against RubyGems clients who have issued a `query` command.
2.6.13
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-cde2-rv4n-tkau
Aliases:
CVE-2017-0903
GHSA-mqwr-4qf2-2hcv
Deserialization of Untrusted Data rubygems-update is vulnerable to a remote code execution vulnerability. YAML deserialization of gem specifications can bypass class white lists. Specially crafted serialized objects can possibly be used to escalate to remote code execution.
2.6.14
Affected by 5 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-f7x5-hz5f-hyd3
Aliases:
CVE-2019-8325
GHSA-4wm8-fjv7-j774
Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer An issue was discovered in RubyGems. Since `Gem::CommandManager#run` calls alert_error without escaping, escape sequence injection is possible. (There are many ways to cause an error.)
2.7.9
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.2
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.3
Affected by 0 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-ha3g-uyse-wybx
Aliases:
CVE-2019-8322
GHSA-mh37-8c3g-3fgc
Injection Vulnerability An issue was discovered in RubyGems. The gem owner command outputs the contents of the API response directly to stdout. Therefore, if the response is crafted, escape sequence injection may occur.
2.7.9
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.2
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.3
Affected by 0 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-jkwe-c323-3yez
Aliases:
CVE-2019-8321
GHSA-fr32-gr5c-xq5c
Argument Injection or Modification An issue was discovered in RubyGems. Since `Gem::UserInteraction#verbose` calls say without escaping, escape sequence injection is possible.
2.7.9
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.2
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.3
Affected by 0 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-jmzh-89dm-r7g2
Aliases:
CVE-2017-0902
GHSA-73w7-6w9g-gc8w
Origin Validation Error RubyGems is vulnerable to a DNS hijacking vulnerability that allows a MITM attacker to force the RubyGems client to download and install gems from a server that the attacker controls.
2.6.13
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-ky5r-bch5-m7dv
Aliases:
CVE-2019-8323
GHSA-3h4r-pjv6-cph9
Injection Vulnerability An issue was discovered in RubyGems. `Gem::GemcutterUtilities#with_response` may output the API response to stdout as it is. Therefore, if the API side modifies the response, escape sequence injection may occur.
2.7.9
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.2
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.3
Affected by 0 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-xgmc-a5rk-zqag
Aliases:
CVE-2019-8324
GHSA-76wm-422q-92mq
Improper Input Validation A crafted gem with a multi-line name is not handled correctly. Therefore, an attacker could inject arbitrary code to the stub line of gemspec, which is evaluated by `ensure_loadable_spec` during the pre-installation check.
2.7.9
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.2
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
3.0.3
Affected by 0 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-xgsa-5umz-qffr
Aliases:
CVE-2017-0899
GHSA-7gcp-2gmq-w3xh
Code Injection RubyGems is vulnerable to maliciously crafted gem specifications that include terminal escape characters. Printing the gem specification would execute terminal escape sequences.
2.6.13
Affected by 6 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-xz68-vwz2-2ke4
Aliases:
CVE-2017-0901
GHSA-pm9x-4392-2c2p
