#927565
Advisory
https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202406-03

Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
dev-ruby/rdoc*< 6.6.3.1>= 6.6.3.1

Background

RDoc produces HTML and command-line documentation for Ruby projects.

Description

A vulnerability has been discovered in RDoc. Please review the CVE identifier referenced below for details.

Impact

When parsing .rdoc_options (used for configuration in RDoc) as a YAML file, object injection and resultant remote code execution are possible because there are no restrictions on the classes that can be restored. When loading the documentation cache, object injection and resultant remote code execution are also possible if there were a crafted cache.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All RDoc users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-ruby/rdoc-6.6.3.1"

Advisory
https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202401-05

Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
dev-ruby/rdoc*< 6.3.2>= 6.3.2

Background

RDoc produces HTML and command-line documentation for Ruby projects.

Description

A vulnerability has been discovered in RDoc. Please review the CVE identifier referenced below for details.

Impact

RDoc used to call Kernel#open to open a local file. If a Ruby project has a file whose name starts with | and ends with tags, the command following the pipe character is executed. A malicious Ruby project could exploit it to run an arbitrary command execution against a user who attempts to run the rdoc command.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All RDoc users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-ruby/rdoc-6.3.2"
