Descriptions

lib/rack/utils.rb in Rack before 1.5.4 and 1.6.x before 1.6.2, as used with Ruby on Rails 3.x and 4.x and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (SystemStackError) via a request with a large parameter depth.

Vulnerabilidad en lib/rack/utils.rb en Rack en versiones anteriores a 1.5.4 y 1.6.x anteriores a 1.6.2, tal como se utiliza con Ruby on Rails en versiones 3.x y 4.x y en otros productos, permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (SystemStackError) a través de una solicitud con un parámetro de gran tamaño.

A flaw was found in a way Rack processed parameters of incoming requests. An attacker could use this flaw to send a crafted request that would cause an application using Rack to crash.
