CVE-2013-0269
Last modified
CVE-2013-0269 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The JSON gem before 1.5.5, 1.6.x before 1.6.8, and 1.7.x before 1.7.7 for Ruby allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) or bypass the mass assignment protection mechanism via a crafted JSON document that triggers the creation of arbitrary Ruby symbols or certain internal objects, as demonstrated by conducting a SQL injection attack against Ruby on Rails, aka "Unsafe Object Creation Vulnerability.". EPSS estimates a 13.91% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
