GSD-2020-5243

Vulnerability from gsd - Updated: 2020-03-10 00:00
Details
### Impact Some regexes are vulnerable to regular expression denial of service (REDoS) due to overlapping capture groups. This allows remote attackers to overload a server by setting the User-Agent header in an HTTP(S) request to maliciously crafted long strings. ### Patches Please update `uap-ruby` to >= v2.6.0 ### For more information https://github.com/ua-parser/uap-core/security/advisories/GHSA-cmcx-xhr8-3w9p
