Details
There is a possible Denial of Service vulnerability in the Mime type parser of Action Dispatch. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2021-22902. Versions Affected: >= 6.0.0 Not affected: < 6.0.0 Fixed Versions: 6.0.3.7, 6.1.3.2 Impact ------ There is a possible Denial of Service vulnerability in Action Dispatch. Carefully crafted Accept headers can cause the mime type parser in Action Dispatch to do catastrophic backtracking in the regular expression engine. Workarounds ----------- The following monkey patch placed in an initializer can be used to work around the issue: ```ruby module Mime class Type MIME_REGEXP = /\A(?:\*\/\*|#{MIME_NAME}\/(?:\*|#{MIME_NAME})(?>\s*#{MIME_PARAMETER}\s*)*)\z/ end end ```
