Bumps rack from 2.0.7 to 2.2.3. This update includes security fixes.

Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The GitHub Security Advisory Database.

Low severity vulnerability that affects rack There's a possible information leak / session hijack vulnerability in Rack. Attackers may be able to find and hijack sessions by using timing attacks targeting the session id. Session ids are usually stored and indexed in a database that uses some kind of scheme for speeding up lookups of that session id. By carefully measuring the amount of time it takes to look up a session, an attacker may be able to find a valid session id and hijack the session.

The session id itself may be generated randomly, but the way the session is indexed by the backing store does not use a secure comparison.

Impact

The session id stored in a cookie is the same id that is used when querying the backing session storage engine. Most storage mechanisms (for example a database) use some sort of indexing in order to speed up the lookup of that id. By carefully timing requests and session lookup failures, an attacker may be able to perform a timing attack to determine an existing session id and hijack that session.

Releases

The 1.6.12 and 2.0.8 releases are available at the normal locations.

Workarounds

There are no known workarounds.

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

Directory traversal in Rack::Directory app bundled with Rack There was a possible directory traversal vulnerability in the Rack::Directory app that is bundled with Rack.

Versions Affected: rack < 2.2.0 Not affected: Applications that do not use Rack::Directory. Fixed Versions: 2.1.3, >= 2.2.0

Impact

If certain directories exist in a director that is managed by Rack::Directory, an attacker could, using this vulnerability, read the contents of files on the server that were outside of the root specified in the Rack::Directory initializer.

Workarounds

Until such time as the patch is applied or their Rack version is upgraded, we recommend that developers do not use Rack::Directory in their

Percent-encoded cookies can be used to overwrite existing prefixed cookie names It is possible to forge a secure or host-only cookie prefix in Rack using an arbitrary cookie write by using URL encoding (percent-encoding) on the name of the cookie. This could result in an application that is dependent on this prefix to determine if a cookie is safe to process being manipulated into processing an insecure or cross-origin request. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2020-8184.

Versions Affected: rack < 2.2.3, rack < 2.1.4 Not affected: Applications which do not rely on __Host- and __Secure- prefixes to determine if a cookie is safe to process Fixed Versions: rack >= 2.2.3, rack >= 2.1.4

Impact

An attacker may be able to trick a vulnerable application into processing an insecure (non-SSL) or cross-origin request if they can gain the ability to write arbitrary cookies that are sent to the application.
