Last modified

CVE-2026-126354 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Addressable is an alternative implementation to the URI implementation that is part of Ruby's standard library. From 2.2.5 until 2.9.1, Addressable::URI.normalize_path can resolve a path containing leading parent segments and later parent segments to a different path than an RFC 3986 resolver. EPSS estimates a 0.29% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Description

Addressable is an alternative implementation to the URI implementation that is part of Ruby's standard library. From 2.2.5 until 2.9.1, Addressable::URI.normalize_path can resolve a path containing leading parent segments and later parent segments to a different path than an RFC 3986 resolver. URI#normalize, URI#join, URI#==, and URI#=== inherit the result. An application that authorizes the Addressable-normalized path but sends the original URI to another resolver can allow access outside the intended path allowlist. Applications that use the same normalized value for authorization and the request, or reject parent segments, are unaffected. This issue is fixed in version 2.9.1.
