CVE-2024-26146

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.

CVE-2024-26141

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

CVE-2024-25126

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.
