Descriptions

The extract_files function in installer.rb in RubyGems before 0.9.1 does not check whether files exist before overwriting them, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files, cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code via crafted GEM packages.

La función extract_files en installer.rb de RubyGems before 0.9.1 no comprueba la existencia ficheros antes de sobrescribirlos, lo cual permite a atacantes remotos con la complicidad del usuario sobrescribir ficheros de su elección, provocar una denegación de servicio, o ejecutar código de su elección mediante paquetes GEM artesanales.
