CVE-2011-2197
Estado: ModificadaMedia (4.3)—
The cross-site scripting (XSS) prevention feature in Ruby on Rails 2.x before 2.3.12, 3.0.x before 3.0.8, and 3.1.x before 3.1.0.rc2 does not properly handle mutation of safe buffers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct XSS attacks via crafted strings to an application that uses a problematic string method, as demonstrated by the sub method.
CVSS
- Versión: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
- Puntuación base: 4.3
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 1.96%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 80
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
