CVE-2023-28756 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Ruby-lang 4 Debian Linux, Fedora, Ruby and 1 more 2025-11-04 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
A ReDoS issue was discovered in the Time component through 0.2.1 in Ruby through 3.2.1. The Time parser mishandles invalid URLs that have specific characters. It causes an increase in execution time for parsing strings to Time objects. The fixed versions are 0.1.1 and 0.2.2.
CVE-2022-28739 3 Apple, Debian, Ruby-lang 3 Macos, Debian Linux, Ruby 2025-11-04 4.3 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
There is a buffer over-read in Ruby before 2.6.10, 2.7.x before 2.7.6, 3.x before 3.0.4, and 3.1.x before 3.1.2. It occurs in String-to-Float conversion, including Kernel#Float and String#to_f.
CVE-2021-33621 2 Fedoraproject, Ruby-lang 3 Fedora, Cgi, Ruby 2025-11-04 N/A 8.8 HIGH
The cgi gem before 0.1.0.2, 0.2.x before 0.2.2, and 0.3.x before 0.3.5 for Ruby allows HTTP response splitting. This is relevant to applications that use untrusted user input either to generate an HTTP response or to create a CGI::Cookie object.
CVE-2025-27220 1 Ruby-lang 2 Cgi, Ruby 2025-11-03 N/A 4.0 MEDIUM
In the CGI gem before 0.4.2 for Ruby, a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability exists in the Util#escapeElement method.
CVE-2024-49761 2 Netapp, Ruby-lang 3 Ontap Tools, Rexml, Ruby 2025-11-03 N/A 7.5 HIGH
REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem before 3.3.9 has a ReDoS vulnerability when it parses an XML that has many digits between &# and x...; in a hex numeric character reference (&#x...;). This does not happen with Ruby 3.2 or later. Ruby 3.1 is the only affected maintained Ruby. The REXML gem 3.3.9 or later include the patch to fix the vulnerability.
CVE-2021-41819 6 Debian, Fedoraproject, Opensuse and 3 more 9 Debian Linux, Fedora, Factory and 6 more 2025-05-22 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
CGI::Cookie.parse in Ruby through 2.6.8 mishandles security prefixes in cookie names. This also affects the CGI gem through 0.3.0 for Ruby.
CVE-2016-2337 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
Type confusion exists in _cancel_eval Ruby's TclTkIp class method. Attacker passing different type of object than String as "retval" argument can cause arbitrary code execution.
CVE-2017-14033 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The decode method in the OpenSSL::ASN1 module in Ruby before 2.2.8, 2.3.x before 2.3.5, and 2.4.x through 2.4.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (interpreter crash) via a crafted string.
CVE-2017-11465 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
The parser_yyerror function in the UTF-8 parser in Ruby 2.4.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid write or read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted Ruby script, related to the parser_tokadd_utf8 function in parse.y. NOTE: this might have security relevance as a bypass of a $SAFE protection mechanism.
CVE-2014-6438 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The URI.decode_www_form_component method in Ruby before 1.9.2-p330 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (catastrophic regular expression backtracking, resource consumption, or application crash) via a crafted string.
CVE-2017-0898 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 6.4 MEDIUM 9.1 CRITICAL
Ruby before 2.4.2, 2.3.5, and 2.2.8 is vulnerable to a malicious format string which contains a precious specifier (*) with a huge minus value. Such situation can lead to a buffer overrun, resulting in a heap memory corruption or an information disclosure from the heap.
CVE-2017-17405 3 Debian, Redhat, Ruby-lang 8 Debian Linux, Enterprise Linux Desktop, Enterprise Linux Server and 5 more 2025-04-20 9.3 HIGH 8.8 HIGH
Ruby before 2.4.3 allows Net::FTP command injection. Net::FTP#get, getbinaryfile, gettextfile, put, putbinaryfile, and puttextfile use Kernel#open to open a local file. If the localfile argument starts with the "|" pipe character, the command following the pipe character is executed. The default value of localfile is File.basename(remotefile), so malicious FTP servers could cause arbitrary command execution.
CVE-2017-9225 3 Oniguruma Project, Php, Ruby-lang 3 Oniguruma, Php, Ruby 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
An issue was discovered in Oniguruma 6.2.0, as used in Oniguruma-mod in Ruby through 2.4.1 and mbstring in PHP through 7.1.5. A stack out-of-bounds write in onigenc_unicode_get_case_fold_codes_by_str() occurs during regular expression compilation. Code point 0xFFFFFFFF is not properly handled in unicode_unfold_key(). A malformed regular expression could result in 4 bytes being written off the end of a stack buffer of expand_case_fold_string() during the call to onigenc_unicode_get_case_fold_codes_by_str(), a typical stack buffer overflow.
CVE-2017-17790 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
The lazy_initialize function in lib/resolv.rb in Ruby through 2.4.3 uses Kernel#open, which might allow Command Injection attacks, as demonstrated by a Resolv::Hosts::new argument beginning with a '|' character, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-17405. NOTE: situations with untrusted input may be highly unlikely.
CVE-2009-5147 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 7.3 HIGH
DL::dlopen in Ruby 1.8, 1.9.0, 1.9.2, 1.9.3, 2.0.0 before patchlevel 648, and 2.1 before 2.1.8 opens libraries with tainted names.
CVE-2017-10784 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 9.3 HIGH 8.8 HIGH
The Basic authentication code in WEBrick library in Ruby before 2.2.8, 2.3.x before 2.3.5, and 2.4.x through 2.4.1 allows remote attackers to inject terminal emulator escape sequences into its log and possibly execute arbitrary commands via a crafted user name.
CVE-2015-9096 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Net::SMTP in Ruby before 2.4.0 is vulnerable to SMTP command injection via CRLF sequences in a RCPT TO or MAIL FROM command, as demonstrated by CRLF sequences immediately before and after a DATA substring.
CVE-2017-6181 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The parse_char_class function in regparse.c in the Onigmo (aka Oniguruma-mod) regular expression library, as used in Ruby 2.4.0, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (deep recursion and application crash) via a crafted regular expression.
CVE-2017-14064 4 Canonical, Debian, Redhat and 1 more 9 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Enterprise Linux Desktop and 6 more 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
Ruby through 2.2.7, 2.3.x through 2.3.4, and 2.4.x through 2.4.1 can expose arbitrary memory during a JSON.generate call. The issues lies in using strdup in ext/json/ext/generator/generator.c, which will stop after encountering a '\0' byte, returning a pointer to a string of length zero, which is not the length stored in space_len.
CVE-2016-2339 1 Ruby-lang 1 Ruby 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
An exploitable heap overflow vulnerability exists in the Fiddle::Function.new "initialize" function functionality of Ruby. In Fiddle::Function.new "initialize" heap buffer "arg_types" allocation is made based on args array length. Specially constructed object passed as element of args array can increase this array size after mentioned allocation and cause heap overflow.
