CVE-2021-32066

Se ha detectado un problema en Ruby versiones hasta 2.6.7, versiones 2.7.x hasta 2.7.3, y versiones 3.x hasta 3.0.1. Net::IMAP no lanza una excepción cuando StartTLS falla con una respuesta desconocida, lo que podría permitir a atacantes tipo man-in-the-middle omitir las protecciones TLS, al aprovechar una posición de red entre el cliente y el registro para bloquear el comando StartTLS, también se conoce como "StartTLS stripping attack"

Ruby's Net::IMAP module did not raise an exception when receiving an unexpected response to the STARTTLS command and the connection was not upgraded to use TLS. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to prevent Ruby applications using Net::IMAP to enable TLS encryption for a connection to an IMAP server and subsequently eavesdrop on or modify data sent over the plain text connection.

It was discovered that Ruby incorrectly handled certain inputs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Ruby incorrectly handled certain inputs.
