CVE-2018-8777 – ruby: DoS by large request in WEBrick

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-8777

In Ruby before 2.2.10, 2.3.x before 2.3.7, 2.4.x before 2.4.4, 2.5.x before 2.5.1, and 2.6.0-preview1, an attacker can pass a large HTTP request with a crafted header to WEBrick server or a crafted body to WEBrick server/handler and cause a denial of service (memory consumption). En Ruby, en versiones anteriores a la 2.2.10, versiones 2.3.x anteriores a la 2.3.7, versiones 2.4.x anteriores a la 2.4.4, versiones 2.5.x anteriores a la 2.5.1 y la versión 2.6.0-preview1, un atacante puede pasar una petición HTTP larga con una cabecera manipulada al servidor WEBrick o un cuerpo manipulado al servidor/manipulador WEBrick y provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de memoria). It was found that WEBrick could be forced to use an excessive amount of memory during the processing of HTTP requests, leading to a Denial of Service. An attacker could use this flaw to send huge requests to a WEBrick application, resulting in the server running out of memory. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2019-07/msg00036.html http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/103683 http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1042004 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:3729 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:3730 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:3731 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2019:2028 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:0542 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:0591 https://access.redhat.com/errata&#x • CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption •
