CVE-2017-1000037
CriticalSummary
RVM automatically loads environment variables from files in $PWD, leading to command execution vulnerabilities. RVM also executes hooks and installs gems and performs 'bundle install' based on files in $PWD, resulting in code execution.
Risk Assessment
This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized code execution on the system, posing a serious security threat to the organization.
Recommendation
It is recommended to restrict access to files in $PWD and to review and validate environment variables before they are loaded by RVM.
