CVE-2006-1931 – Yukihiro Matsumoto Ruby 1.x - XMLRPC Server Denial of Service
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2006-1931
20 Apr 2006 — The HTTP/XMLRPC server in Ruby before 1.8.2 uses blocking sockets, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (blocked connections) via a large amount of data. Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the interpreter for the Ruby language, which may lead to the bypass of security restrictions or denial of service. • https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/27723 •

CVE-2005-2337 – Debian Linux Security Advisory 860-1
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2005-2337
07 Oct 2005 — Ruby 1.6.x up to 1.6.8, 1.8.x up to 1.8.2, and 1.9.0 development up to 2005-09-01 allows attackers to bypass safe level and taint flag protections and execute disallowed code when Ruby processes a program through standard input (stdin). The object oriented scripting language Ruby supports safely executing untrusted code with two mechanisms: safe level and taint flag on objects. Dr. Yutaka Oiwa discovered a vulnerability that allows Ruby methods to bypass these mechanisms. In systems which use this feature, ... • http://jvn.jp/jp/JVN%2362914675/index.html •

CVE-2005-1992 – Debian Linux Security Advisory 748-1
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2005-1992
20 Jun 2005 — The XMLRPC server in utils.rb for the ruby library (libruby) 1.8 sets an invalid default value that prevents "security protection" using handlers, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. Nobuhiro IMAI discovered that the changed default value of the Module#public_instance_methods() method broke the security protection of XMLRPC server handlers. A remote attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary commands on an XMLRPC server. • http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/5237 •

CVE-2004-0983 – dsa-586.txt
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2004-0983
10 Nov 2004 — The CGI module in Ruby 1.6 before 1.6.8, and 1.8 before 1.8.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a certain HTTP request. The upstream developers of Ruby have corrected a problem in the CGI module for this language. Specially crafted requests could cause an infinite loop and thus cause the program to eat up cpu cycles. • http://www.debian.org/security/2004/dsa-586 •
