Security Advisories 🚨

🚨 Escape Sequence Injection vulnerability in Rack lead to Possible Log Injection

Summary

Rack::Sendfile can be exploited by crafting input that includes newline characters to manipulate log entries.

Details

The Rack::Sendfile middleware logs unsanitized header values from the X-Sendfile-Type header. An attacker can exploit this by injecting escape sequences (such as newline characters) into the header, resulting in log injection.

Impact

This vulnerability can distort log files, obscure attack traces, and complicate security auditing.

Mitigation

• Update to the latest version of Rack, or
• Remove usage of Rack::Sendfile.

🚨 Possible Log Injection in Rack::CommonLogger

Summary

Rack::CommonLogger can be exploited by crafting input that includes newline characters to manipulate log entries. The supplied proof-of-concept demonstrates injecting malicious content into logs.

Details

When a user provides the authorization credentials via Rack::Auth::Basic, if success, the username will be put in env['REMOTE_USER'] and later be used by Rack::CommonLogger for logging purposes.

The issue occurs when a server intentionally or unintentionally allows a user creation with the username contain CRLF and white space characters, or the server just want to log every login attempts. If an attacker enters a username with CRLF character, the logger will log the malicious username with CRLF characters into the logfile.

Impact

Attackers can break log formats or insert fraudulent entries, potentially obscuring real activity or injecting malicious data into log files.

Mitigation

• Update to the latest version of Rack.

🚨 Rack has possible DoS Vulnerability with Range Header

Possible DoS Vulnerability with Range Header in Rack

There is a possible DoS vulnerability relating to the Range request header in
Rack. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2024-26141.

Versions Affected: >= 1.3.0.
Not affected: < 1.3.0
Fixed Versions: 3.0.9.1, 2.2.8.1

Impact

Carefully crafted Range headers can cause a server to respond with an
unexpectedly large response. Responding with such large responses could lead
to a denial of service issue.

Vulnerable applications will use the Rack::File middleware or the
Rack::Utils.byte_ranges methods (this includes Rails applications).

Releases

The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.

Workarounds

There are no feasible workarounds for this issue.

Patches

To aid users who aren't able to upgrade immediately we have provided patches for
the two supported release series. They are in git-am format and consist of a
single changeset.

• 3-0-range.patch - Patch for 3.0 series

🚨 Rack vulnerable to ReDoS in content type parsing (2nd degree polynomial)

Summary

module Rack
  class MediaType
    SPLIT_PATTERN = %r{\s*[;,]\s*}

The above regexp is subject to ReDos. 50K blank characters as a prefix to the header will take over 10s to split.

PoC

A simple HTTP request with lots of blank characters in the content-type header:

request["Content-Type"] = (" " * 50_000) + "a,"

Impact

It's a very easy to craft ReDoS. Like all ReDoS the impact is debatable.

🚨 Rack Header Parsing leads to Possible Denial of Service Vulnerability

Possible Denial of Service Vulnerability in Rack Header Parsing

There is a possible denial of service vulnerability in the header parsing
routines in Rack. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier
CVE-2024-26146.

Versions Affected: All.
Not affected: None
Fixed Versions: 2.0.9.4, 2.1.4.4, 2.2.8.1, 3.0.9.1

Impact

Carefully crafted headers can cause header parsing in Rack to take longer than
expected resulting in a possible denial of service issue. Accept and Forwarded
headers are impacted.

Ruby 3.2 has mitigations for this problem, so Rack applications using Ruby 3.2
or newer are unaffected.

Releases

The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.

Workarounds

There are no feasible workarounds for this issue.

🚨 Possible Denial of Service Vulnerability in Rack's header parsing

There is a denial of service vulnerability in the header parsing component of Rack. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2023-27539.

Versions Affected: >= 2.0.0 Not affected: None. Fixed Versions: 2.2.6.4, 3.0.6.1

Impact

Carefully crafted input can cause header parsing in Rack to take an unexpected amount of time, possibly resulting in a denial of service attack vector. Any applications that parse headers using Rack (virtually all Rails applications) are impacted.

🚨 Denial of Service Vulnerability in Rack Multipart Parsing

There is a possible denial of service vulnerability in the multipart parsing component of Rack. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2022-30122.

Versions Affected: >= 1.2
Not affected: < 1.2
Fixed Versions: 2.0.9.1, 2.1.4.1, 2.2.3.1

Impact

Carefully crafted multipart POST requests can cause Rack's multipart parser to take much longer than expected, leading to a possible denial of service vulnerability.

Impacted code will use Rack's multipart parser to parse multipart posts. This includes directly using the multipart parser like this:

params = Rack::Multipart.parse_multipart(env)

But it also includes reading POST data from a Rack request object like this:

p request.POST # read POST data
p request.params # reads both query params and POST data

🚨 Possible shell escape sequence injection vulnerability in Rack

There is a possible shell escape sequence injection vulnerability in the Lint

Not affected: None
Fixed Versions: 2.0.9.1, 2.1.4.1, 2.2.3.1

Impact

Carefully crafted requests can cause shell escape sequences to be written to
the terminal via Rack's Lint middleware and CommonLogger middleware. These
escape sequences can be leveraged to possibly execute commands in the victim's
terminal.

Impacted applications will have either of these middleware installed, and
vulnerable apps may have something like this:

use Rack::Lint

Or

use Rack::CommonLogger

🚨 Directory traversal in Rack::Directory app bundled with Rack

A directory traversal vulnerability exists in rack < 2.2.0 that allows an attacker perform directory traversal vulnerability in the Rack::Directory app that is bundled with Rack which could result in information disclosure.

🚨 Rack allows Percent-encoded cookies to overwrite existing prefixed cookie names

A reliance on cookies without validation/integrity check security vulnerability exists in rack < 2.2.3, rack < 2.1.4 that makes it possible for an attacker to forge a secure or host-only cookie prefix.

🚨 Rack allows Percent-encoded cookies to overwrite existing prefixed cookie names

A reliance on cookies without validation/integrity check security vulnerability exists in rack < 2.2.3, rack < 2.1.4 that makes it possible for an attacker to forge a secure or host-only cookie prefix.

🚨 Possible Information Leak / Session Hijack Vulnerability in Rack

There's a possible information leak / session hijack vulnerability in Rack. Attackers may be able to find and hijack sessions by using timing attacks targeting the session id. Session ids are usually stored and indexed in a database that uses some kind of scheme for speeding up lookups of that session id. By carefully measuring the amount of time it takes to look up a session, an attacker may be able to find a valid session id and hijack the session.

The session id itself may be generated randomly, but the way the session is indexed by the backing store does not use a secure comparison.

Impact

The session id stored in a cookie is the same id that is used when querying the backing session storage engine. Most storage mechanisms (for example a database) use some sort of indexing in order to speed up the lookup of that id. By carefully timing requests and session lookup failures, an attacker may be able to perform a timing attack to determine an existing session id and hijack that session.

Releases

The 1.6.12 and 2.0.8 releases are available at the normal locations.

Workarounds

There are no known workarounds.

the two supported release series. They are in git-am format and consist of a

🚨 Rack vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting

There is a possible XSS vulnerability in Rack before 2.0.6 and 1.6.11. Carefully crafted requests can impact the data returned by the scheme method on Rack::Request. Applications that expect the scheme to be limited to 'http' or 'https' and do not escape the return value could be vulnerable to an XSS attack. Note that applications using the normal escaping mechanisms provided by Rails may not impacted, but applications that bypass the escaping mechanisms, or do not use them may be vulnerable.
