Nokogiri is an open source XML and HTML library for the Ruby programming
language. Nokogiri 1.13.8
and 1.13.9
fail to check the return value
from xmlTextReaderExpand
in the method
Nokogiri::XML::Reader#attribute_hash
. This can lead to a null pointer
exception when invalid markup is being parsed. For applications using
XML::Reader
to parse untrusted inputs, this may potentially be a vector
for a denial of service attack. Users are advised to upgrade to Nokogiri
>= 1.13.10
. Users may be able to search their code for calls to either
XML::Reader#attributes
or XML::Reader#attribute_hash
to determine if
they are affected.
