CVE-2024-41128 Information

Description

Action Pack is a framework for handling and responding to web requests. Starting in version 3.1.0 and prior to versions 6.1.7.9 7.0.8.5 7.1.4.1 and 7.2.1.1 there is a possible ReDoS vulnerability in the query parameter filtering routines of Action Dispatch. Carefully crafted query parameters can cause query parameter filtering to take an unexpected amount of time possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability. All users running an affected release should either upgrade to version 6.1.7.9 7.0.8.5 7.1.4.1 or 7.2.1.1 or apply the relevant patch immediately. One may use Ruby 3.2 as a workaround. Ruby 3.2 has mitigations for this problem so Rails applications using Ruby 3.2 or newer are unaffected. Rails 8.0.0.beta1 depends on Ruby 3.2 or greater so is unaffected.
