CVE-2021-22903

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Ruby on Rails ausnutzen, um Informationen offenzulegen, einen Denial of Service Zustand auszulösen und Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen.

There is a possible Open Redirect Vulnerability in Action Pack. Versions Affected: >= v6.1.0.rc2 Not affected: < v6.1.0.rc2 Fixed Versions: 6.1.3.2 Impact ------ This is similar to CVE-2021-22881. Specially crafted Host headers in combination with certain "allowed host" formats can cause the Host Authorization middleware in Action Pack to redirect users to a malicious website. Since rails/rails@9bc7ea5, strings in config.hosts that do not have a leading dot are converted to regular expressions without proper escaping. This causes, for example, config.hosts << "sub.example.com" to permit a request with a Host header value of sub-example.com. Releases -------- The fixed releases are available at the normal locations. Workarounds ----------- The following monkey patch put in an initializer can be used as a workaround. ```ruby class ActionDispatch::HostAuthorization::Permissions def sanitize_string(host) if host.start_with?(".") /\A(.+\.)?#{Regexp.escape(host[1..-1])}\z/i else /\A#{Regexp.escape host}\z/i end end end ``` Patches ------- To aid users who aren't able to upgrade immediately we have provided patches for the two supported release series. They are in git-am format and consist of a single changeset. * 6-1-open-redirect.patch - Patch for 6.1 series Please note that only the 6.1.Z, 6.0.Z, and 5.2.Z series are supported at present. Users of earlier unsupported releases are advised to upgrade as soon as possible as we cannot guarantee the continued availability of security fixes for unsupported releases.
