Descriptions

In Rubyzip before 1.3.0, a crafted ZIP file can bypass application checks on ZIP entry sizes because data about the uncompressed size can be spoofed. This allows attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption).

En Rubyzip versiones anteriores a 1.3.0, un archivo ZIP diseñado puede omitir las comprobaciones de la aplicación en los tamaños de entrada ZIP porque los datos sobre el tamaño sin comprimir pueden ser falsificados. Esto permite a atacantes causar una denegación de servicio (consumo de disco).

A vulnerability in Rubyzip, versions prior to 1.3.0, allows a crafted ZIP file to bypass application checks on ZIP entry sizes. This allows an attacker to spoof data regarding the uncompressed size of the ZIP file, causing a denial of service due to disk consumption. Availability of the system is the highest threat.

Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine delivers the insight, control, and automation needed to address the challenges of managing virtual environments. CloudForms Management Engine is built on Ruby on Rails, a model-view-controller framework for web application development. Action Pack implements the controller and the view components. Issues addressed include a denial of service vulnerability.
