TITLE

Ruby of BigDecimal In class VpMemAlloc Vulnerability in arbitrary code execution in function

DESCRIPTION

The VpMemAlloc function in bigdecimal.c in the BigDecimal class in Ruby 1.9.2-p136 and earlier, as used on Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.7 and other platforms, does not properly allocate memory, which allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via vectors involving creation of a large BigDecimal value within a 64-bit process, related to an "integer truncation issue.". Ruby is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. A successful exploit can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. Ruby 1.9.2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. NOTE: This issue was previously described in BID 46950 (Apple Mac OS X Prior to 10.6.7 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities) but has been given its own record to better document it. Apple Mac OS X is a dedicated operating system developed by Apple for Mac computers. The safe-level feature in Ruby allows context-dependent attackers to modify strings via the Exception#to_s method, as demonstrated by changing an intended pathname (CVE-2011-1005). (CVE-2011-0188).

(CVE-2011-1004) It was found that WEBrick (the Ruby HTTP server toolkit) did not filter terminal escape sequences from its log files. A remote attacker could use specially-crafted HTTP requests to inject terminal escape sequences into the WEBrick log files. If a victim viewed the log files with a terminal emulator, it could result in control characters being executed with the privileges of that user. (CVE-2009-4492) A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the way WEBrick displayed error pages. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform a cross-site scripting attack against victims by tricking them into visiting a specially-crafted URL. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Gentoo Linux Security Advisory GLSA 201412-27 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - http://security.gentoo.org/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Severity: Normal Title: Ruby: Denial of Service Date: December 13, 2014 Bugs: #355439, #369141, #396301, #437366, #442580, #458776, #492282, #527084, #529216 ID: 201412-27 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Synopsis ======== Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Ruby, allowing context-dependent attackers to cause a Denial of Service condition.

Description: Ruby is an extensible, interpreted, object-oriented, scripting language. It has features to process text files and to do system management tasks. A flaw was found in the way large amounts of memory were allocated on 64-bit systems when using the BigDecimal class. This issue did not affect 32-bit systems. (CVE-2011-0188) A race condition flaw was found in the remove system entries method in the FileUtils module. If a local user ran a Ruby script that uses this method, a local attacker could use this flaw to delete arbitrary files and directories accessible to that user via a symbolic link attack. (CVE-2011-1004) A flaw was found in the method for translating an exception message into a string in the Exception class. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass safe level 4 restrictions, allowing untrusted (tainted) code to modify arbitrary, trusted (untainted) strings, which safe level 4 restrictions would otherwise prevent. (CVE-2011-1005) Red Hat would like to thank Drew Yao of Apple Product Security for reporting the CVE-2011-0188 issue. All Ruby users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these issues. 4. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259 5.

Content-Disposition: inline ============================================================================ Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1377-1 February 28, 2012 ruby1.8 vulnerabilities ============================================================================ A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 11.10 - Ubuntu 11.04 - Ubuntu 10.10 - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in ruby1.8. Software Description: - ruby1.8: Interpreter of object-oriented scripting language Ruby 1.8 Details: Drew Yao discovered that the WEBrick HTTP server was vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks when displaying error pages. (CVE-2010-0541) Drew Yao discovered that Ruby's BigDecimal module did not properly allocate memory on 64-bit platforms. (CVE-2011-0188) Nicholas Jefferson discovered that the FileUtils.remove_entry_secure method in Ruby did not properly remove non-empty directories. (CVE-2011-1004) It was discovered that Ruby incorrectly allowed untainted strings to be modified in protective safe levels. (CVE-2011-1005) Eric Wong discovered that Ruby does not properly reseed its pseudorandom number generator when creating child processes. An attacker could use this flaw to gain knowledge of the random numbers used in other Ruby child processes. (CVE-2011-2686) Eric Wong discovered that the SecureRandom module in Ruby did not properly seed its pseudorandom number generator. An attacker could use this flaw to gain knowledge of the random numbers used by another Ruby process with the same process ID number. (CVE-2011-2705) Alexander Klink and Julian W=E4lde discovered that Ruby computed hash values without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably. A remote attacker could cause a denial of service by crafting values used in hash tables. (CVE-2011-4815) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 11.10: libruby1.8 1.8.7.352-2ubuntu0.1 ruby1.8 1.8.7.352-2ubuntu0.1 Ubuntu 11.04: libruby1.8 1.8.7.302-2ubuntu0.1 ruby1.8 1.8.7.302-2ubuntu0.1 Ubuntu 10.10: libruby1.8 1.8.7.299-2ubuntu0.1 ruby1.8 1.8.7.299-2ubuntu0.1 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: libruby1.8 1.8.7.249-2ubuntu0.1 ruby1.8 1.8.7.249-2ubuntu0.1 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes
