CVE-2008-1891

Una vulnerabilidad de salto de directorio en WEBrick en Ruby versión 1.8.4 y anteriores, versión 1.8.5 anterior a 1.8.5-p231, versión 1.8.6 anterior a 1.8.6-p230, versión 1.8.7 anterior a 1.8.7-p22, y versión 1.9.0 anterior a 1.9.0-2, cuando se utilizan sistemas de archivos NTFS o FAT, permite a los atacantes remotos leer archivos CGI arbitrarios por medio de un trailing (1) + (más), (2) %2b (más codificado), (3) . (punto), (4) %2e (punto codificado) o (5) %20 (espacio codificado) en el URI, posiblemente relacionado con la función WEBrick::HTTPServlet::FileHandler y WEBrick::HTTPServer.new y la opción :DocumentRoot.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in the Ruby interpreter and in Webrick, the webserver bundled with Ruby. Directory traversal vulnerability in WEBrick in Ruby 1.8 before 1.8.5-p115 and 1.8.6-p114, and 1.9 through 1.9.0-1, when running on systems that support backslash (\) path separators or case-insensitive file names, allows remote attackers to access arbitrary files via (1).%5c (encoded backslash) sequences or (2) filenames that match patterns in the :NondisclosureName option. Directory traversal vulnerability in WEBrick in Ruby 1.9.0 and earlier, when using NTFS or FAT filesystems, allows remote attackers to read arbitrary CGI files via a trailing (1) + (plus), (2) %2b (encoded plus), (3). (dot), (4) %2e (encoded dot), or (5) %20 (encoded space) character in the URI, possibly related to the WEBrick::HTTPServlet::FileHandler and WEBrick::HTTPServer.new functionality and the :DocumentRoot option. Multiple integer overflows in the rb_str_buf_append function in Ruby 1.8.4 and earlier, 1.8.5 before 1.8.5-p231, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p230, 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p22, and 1.9.0 before 1.9.0-2 allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via unknown vectors that trigger memory corruption. Multiple integer overflows in the rb_ary_store function in Ruby 1.8.4 and earlier, 1.8.5 before 1.8.5-p231, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p230, and 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p22 allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via unknown vectors. The rb_str_format function in Ruby 1.8.4 and earlier, 1.8.5 before 1.8.5-p231, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p230, 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p22, and 1.9.0 before 1.9.0-2 allows context-dependent attackers to trigger memory corruption via unspecified vectors related to alloca. Integer overflow in the rb_ary_splice function in Ruby 1.8.4 and earlier, 1.8.5 before 1.8.5-p231, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p230, and 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p22 allows context-dependent attackers to trigger memory corruption via unspecified vectors, aka the REALLOC_N variant. Integer overflow in the rb_ary_splice function in Ruby 1.8.4 and earlier, 1.8.5 before 1.8.5-p231, 1.8.6 before 1.8.6-p230, 1.8.7 before 1.8.7-p22, and 1.9.0 before 1.9.0-2 allows context-dependent attackers to trigger memory corruption, aka the beg + rlen issue. Integer overflow in the rb_ary_fill function in array.c in Ruby before revision 17756 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a call to the Array#fill method with a start (aka beg) argument greater than ARY_MAX_SIZE. The updated packages have been patched to fix these issues.
