Synopsis ========
Ruby WEBrick and XMLRPC servers are vulnerable to Denial of Service.
Background ==========
Ruby is an interpreted scripting language for quick and easy object-oriented programming. It comes bundled with HTTP ("WEBrick") and XMLRPC server objects.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-lang/ruby < 1.8.4-r1 >= 1.8.4-r1
Description ===========
Ruby uses blocking sockets for WEBrick and XMLRPC servers.
Impact ======
An attacker could send large amounts of data to an affected server to block the socket and thus deny other connections to the server.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All Ruby users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-lang/ruby-1.8.4-r1"
