CarrierWave Content-Type allowlist bypass vulnerability, possibly leading to XSS
### Impact [CarrierWave::Uploader::ContentTypeAllowlist](https://github.com/carrierwaveuploader/carrierwave/blob/master/lib/carrierwave/uploader/content_type_allowlist.rb) has a Content-Type allowlist bypass vulnerability, possibly leading to XSS. The validation in `allowlisted_content_type?` determines Content-Type permissions by performing a partial match. If the `content_type` argument of `allowlisted_content_type?` is passed a value crafted by the attacker, Content-Types not included in the `content_type_allowlist` will be allowed. In addition, by setting the Content-Type configured by the attacker at the time of file delivery, it is possible to cause XSS on the user's browser when the uploaded file is opened. ### Patches Upgrade to [3.0.5](https://rubygems.org/gems/carrierwave/versions/3.0.5) or [2.2.5](https://rubygems.org/gems/carrierwave/versions/2.2.5). ### Workarounds When validating with `allowlisted_content_type?` in [CarrierWave::Uploader::ContentTypeAllowlist](https://github.com/carrierwaveuploader/carrierwave/blob/master/lib/carrierwave/uploader/content_type_allowlist.rb) , forward match(`\A`) the Content-Type set in `content_type_allowlist`, preventing unintentional permission of `text/html;image/png` when you want to allow only `image/png` in `content_type_allowlist`. ### References [OWASP - File Upload Cheat Sheet](https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/File_Upload_Cheat_Sheet.html#content-type-validation)
