Synopsis |
16 |
======== |
17 |
|
18 |
A vulnerability in OpenID library for Ruby at worst might allow an |
19 |
attacker to bypass authentication. |
20 |
|
21 |
Background |
22 |
========== |
23 |
|
24 |
A Ruby library for verifying and serving OpenID identities. |
25 |
|
26 |
Affected packages |
27 |
================= |
28 |
|
29 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
30 |
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
31 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
32 |
1 dev-ruby/ruby-openid < 2.9.2 >= 2.9.2 |
33 |
|
34 |
Description |
35 |
=========== |
36 |
|
37 |
It was discovered that OpenID library for Ruby performed discovery |
38 |
first, and then verification. |
39 |
|
40 |
Impact |
41 |
====== |
42 |
|
43 |
A remote attacker could possibly change the URL used for discovery and |
44 |
trick the server into connecting to the URL. This server in turn could |
45 |
be a private server not |
46 |
publicly accessible. |
47 |
|
48 |
In addition, if the client that uses this library discloses connection |
49 |
errors, this in turn could disclose information from the private server |
50 |
to the attacker. |
51 |
|
52 |
Workaround |
53 |
========== |
54 |
|
55 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
56 |
|
57 |
Resolution |
58 |
========== |
59 |
|
60 |
All ruby-openid users should upgrade to the latest version: |
61 |
|
62 |
# emerge --sync |
63 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-ruby/ruby-openid-2.9.2" |
64 |
