Описание
REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem before 3.3.9 has a ReDoS vulnerability when it parses an XML that has many digits between &# and x...; in a hex numeric character reference (&#x...;). This does not happen with Ruby 3.2 or later. Ruby 3.1 is the only affected maintained Ruby. The REXML gem 3.3.9 or later include the patch to fix the vulnerability.
A flaw was found in the REXML XML toolkit for Ruby. Parsing XML data containing a large number of digits between &# and x...; in a hex numeric character reference (&#x...;) can trigger a regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) condition, leading to a denial of service.
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as a moderate severity because it allows attackers to exploit inefficient regex parsing in hex numeric character references (&#x...;), causing a ReDoS and impacting availability, it requires specific malicious input but does not affect confidentiality or integrity. Below listed the component versions and its REXML usage for the different Satellite versions:
- In Satellite 6.17, 6.16 (for both RHEL 8 and RHEL 9), is used the ReXML version 8.8.1-1 in the Puppet Agent component, therefore we are not affected.
- In Satellite 6.15 (for RHEL 8), is used the ReXML version 7.28-0-1 in the Puppet Agent component, therefore we are affected
- In Satellite 6.17, 6.16 (for RHEL 8 and RHEL 9), is used the ReXML version of 8.6.2-2 in the Puppet Server component, therefore we are affected.
- In Satellite 6.15 (for RHEL 8), is not used the ReXML version of 7.17.2-1, therefore we are not affected. As a conclusion the only affected versions are Satellite 6.17 and 6.16 (for Puppet Server), and Satellite 6.15 (for the Puppet Agent). Any other Satellite versions than this are considered as not-affected.
