"title"=>"CVE-2024-27281: RCE vulnerability with .rdoc_options in RDoc",
"summary"=>"
We have released the RDoc gem version 6.3.4.1, 6.4.1.1, 6.5.1.1 and 6.6.3.1 that have a security fix for a RCE vulnerability.\nThis vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2024-27281.
\n\nDetails
\n\nAn issue was discovered in RDoc 6.3.3 through 6.6.2, as distributed in Ruby 3.x through 3.3.0.
\n\nWhen parsing .rdoc_options
(used for configuration in RDoc) as a YAML file, object injection and resultant remote code execution are possible because there are no restrictions on the classes that can be restored.
When loading the documentation cache, object injection and resultant remote code execution are also possible if there were a crafted cache.
\n\nRecommended action
\n\nWe recommend to update the RDoc gem to version 6.6.3.1 or later. In order to ensure compatibility with bundled version in older Ruby series, you may update as follows instead:
\n\n- \n
- For Ruby 3.0 users: Update to
rdoc
6.3.4.1 \n - For Ruby 3.1 users: Update to
rdoc
6.4.1.1 \n - For Ruby 3.2 users: Update to
rdoc
6.5.1.1 \n
You can use gem update rdoc
to update it. If you are using bundler, please add gem \"rdoc\", \">= 6.6.3.1\"
to your Gemfile
.
Note: 6.3.4, 6.4.1, 6.5.1 and 6.6.3 have a incorrect fix. We recommend to upgrade 6.3.4.1, 6.4.1.1, 6.5.1.1 and 6.6.3.1 instead of them.
\n\nAffected versions
\n\n- \n
- Ruby 3.0.6 or lower \n
- Ruby 3.1.4 or lower \n
- Ruby 3.2.3 or lower \n
- Ruby 3.3.0 \n
- RDoc gem 6.3.3 or lower, 6.4.0 through 6.6.2 without the patch versions (6.3.4, 6.4.1, 6.5.1) \n
