Source: GitHub Advisory Database (reviewed) High CVE-2020-25613

Packages

EcosystemPackageAffectedFixed in
RubyGems webrick >= 1.6.0, < 1.6.1 1.6.1

Details

As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).

An issue was discovered in Ruby through 2.5.8, 2.6.x through 2.6.6, and 2.7.x through 2.7.1. WEBrick, a simple HTTP server bundled with Ruby, had not checked the transfer-encoding header value rigorously. An attacker may potentially exploit this issue to bypass a reverse proxy (which also has a poor header check), which may lead to an HTTP Request Smuggling attack.
