HighMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
RubyGems versions 2.6 through 3.0.2
Description:
The issue is related to insufficient escaping in the Gem::CommandManager module of the RubyGems package management system. This allows a remote attacker to inject escape sequences, potentially disrupting data integrity by causing an error through various means.
Recommendations:
For versions 2.6 through 3.0.2, consider disabling the
Gem::CommandManager#run function until a patch is available to prevent escape sequence injection.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
