Description

RubyGems versions between 2.0.0 and 2.6.13 are vulnerable to a possible remote code execution vulnerability. YAML deserialization of gem specifications can bypass class white lists. Specially crafted serialized objects can possibly be used to escalate to remote code execution.

Solution(s)

  • suse-upgrade-libruby2_1-2_1
  • suse-upgrade-ruby2-1
  • suse-upgrade-ruby2-1-devel
  • suse-upgrade-ruby2-1-stdlib
  • suse-upgrade-yast2-ruby-bindings

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
