Descriptions
A ReDoS issue was discovered in the URI component through 0.12.0 in Ruby through 3.2.1. The URI parser mishandles invalid URLs that have specific characters. It causes an increase in execution time for parsing strings to URI objects. The fixed versions are 0.12.1, 0.11.1, 0.10.2 and 0.10.0.1.
A flaw was found in the rubygem URI. The URI parser mishandles invalid URLs that have specific characters, which causes an increase in execution time parsing strings to URI objects. This may result in a regular expression denial of service (ReDoS).
It was discovered that Ruby incorrectly handled certain regular expressions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
