CVE-2012-5371
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5)—
Ruby (aka CRuby) 1.9 before 1.9.3-p327 and 2.0 before r37575 computes hash values without properly restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via crafted input to an application that maintains a hash table, as demonstrated by a universal multicollision attack against a variant of the MurmurHash2 algorithm, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-4815.
CVSS
- Versión: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
- Puntuación base: 5
