TITLE

Ruby Heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

Heap-based buffer overflow in Ruby 1.8, 1.9 before 1.9.3-p484, 2.0 before 2.0.0-p353, 2.1 before 2.1.0 preview2, and trunk before revision 43780 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a string that is converted to a floating point value, as demonstrated using (1) the to_f method or (2) JSON.parse. Ruby is prone to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability because it fails to adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application using the affected function. Failed exploit attempts will likely crash the application. Following versions are vulnerable: Ruby 1.8 Ruby 1.9 prior to 1.9.3-p484 Ruby 2.0 prior to 2.0.0-p353 Ruby 2.1 prior to 2.1.0 preview2. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2013-1821 Ben Murphy discovered that unrestricted entity expansion in REXML can lead to a Denial of Service by consuming all host memory. CVE-2013-4073 William (B.J.) Snow Orvis discovered a vulnerability in the hostname checking in Ruby's SSL client that could allow man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via a crafted certificate issued by a trusted certification authority. For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 1.8.7.302-2squeeze2. For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in version 1.8.7.358-7.1+deb7u1. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 1.8.7.358-9. We recommend that you upgrade your ruby1.8 packages. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Critical: ruby security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2013:1767-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2013-1767.html Issue date: 2013-11-26 CVE Names: CVE-2013-4164 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated ruby packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4 Extended Update Support. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2.

Description: Ruby is an extensible, interpreted, object-oriented, scripting language. It has features to process text files and to perform system management tasks. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way Ruby parsed floating point numbers from their text representation. (CVE-2013-4164) All ruby users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/site/articles/11258 5.

CVE-ID CVE-2014-4447 : Mayo Jordanov Server Available for: OS X Yosemite v10.10 or later Impact: An attacker may be able to decrypt data protected by SSL Description: There are known attacks on the confidentiality of SSL 3.0 when a cipher suite uses a block cipher in CBC mode. An attacker could force the use of SSL 3.0, even when the server would support a better TLS version, by blocking TLS 1.0 and higher connection attempts. This issue was addressed by disabling SSL 3.0 support in Web Server, Calendar & Contacts Server, and Remote Administration. CVE-ID CVE-2014-3566 : Bodo Moeller, Thai Duong, and Krzysztof Kotowicz of Google Security Team ServerRuby Available for: OS X Yosemite v10.10 or later Impact: Running a Ruby script that handles untrusted YAML tags may lead to an unexpected application termination or arbitrary code execution Description: An integer overflow issue existed in LibYAML's handling of YAML tags. This issue was addressed through additional validation of YAML tags. This issue does not affect systems prior to OS X Mavericks. CVE-ID CVE-2013-6393 OS X Server v4.0 may be obtained from the Mac App Store. Relevant releases/architectures: Management Engine - noarch, x86_64 3. Description: Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine delivers the insight, control, and automation enterprises need to address the challenges of managing virtual environments, which are far more complex than physical ones. This technology enables enterprises with existing virtual infrastructures to improve visibility and control, and those just starting virtualization deployments to build and operate a well-managed virtual infrastructure. (CVE-2013-4164) It was found that Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine did not properly sanitize user-supplied values in the ServiceController. (CVE-2014-0057) It was found that several number conversion helpers in Action View did not properly escape all their parameters. An attacker could use these flaws to perform a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack on an application that uses data submitted by a user as parameters to the affected helpers. (CVE-2014-0081) A memory consumption issue was discovered in the text rendering component of Action View. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform a denial of service attack by sending specially crafted queries that would result in the creation of Ruby symbols that were never garbage collected. (CVE-2014-0082) Red Hat would like to thank the Ruby on Rails Project for reporting CVE-2014-0081 and CVE-2014-0082. Upstream acknowledges Kevin Reintjes as the original reporter of CVE-2014-0081, and Toby Hsieh of SlideShare as the original reporter of CVE-2014-0082. This update fixes several bugs and adds multiple enhancements. Documentation for these changes will be available shortly from the Red Hat CloudForms 3.0 Management Engine 5.2 Technical Notes linked to in the References section
