CVE-2016-0752
HighCVSS 7.5KEVSummary
Podatność na przejście do katalogu w Action View w Ruby on Rails przed wersją 3.2.22.1, 4.0.x i 4.1.x przed 4.1.14.1, 4.2.x przed 4.2.5.1 oraz 5.x przed 5.0.0.beta1.1 pozwala zdalnym atakującym na odczyt dowolnych plików poprzez wykorzystanie nieograniczonego użycia metody render i podanie .. (kropka kropka) w ścieżce.
Risk Assessment
Atakujący mogą uzyskać dostęp do wrażliwych danych na serwerze, co może prowadzić do naruszenia poufności informacji i potencjalnych dalszych ataków na system.
Recommendation
Zaleca się aktualizację Ruby on Rails do najnowszej wersji, aby usunąć tę podatność oraz ograniczenie użycia metody render w aplikacji do zaufanych ścieżek.
