GitHub Vulnerability Alerts

CVE-2026-33169

Impact

NumberToDelimitedConverter used a regular expression with gsub! to insert thousands delimiters. This could produce quadratic time complexity on long digit strings.

Releases

The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.

CVE-2026-33170

Impact

SafeBuffer#% does not propagate the @html_unsafe flag to the newly created buffer. If a SafeBuffer is mutated in place (e.g. via gsub!) and then formatted with % using untrusted arguments, the result incorrectly reports html_safe? == true, bypassing ERB auto-escaping and possibly leading to XSS.

Releases

The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.

CVE-2026-33176

Impact

Active Support number helpers accept strings containing scientific notation (e.g. 1e10000), which when converted to a string could be expanded into extremely large decimal representations. This can cause excessive memory allocation and CPU consumption when the expanded number is formatted, possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability.

Releases

The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.

    Makes sure that byte ranges for blobs don't exceed 100mb by default.
    Content ranges that are too big can result in denial of service.

    [CVE-2026-33174]

    Gannon McGibbon

  • Limit range requests to a single range

    [CVE-2026-33658]

    Jean Boussier

  • Prevent path traversal in DiskService.

    DiskService#path_for now raises an InvalidKeyError when passed keys with dot segments (".",
    ".."), or if the resolved path is outside the storage root directory.

    #path_for also now consistently raises InvalidKeyError if the key is invalid in any way, for
    example containing null bytes or having an incompatible encoding. Previously, the exception
    raised may have been ArgumentError or Encoding::CompatibilityError.

    DiskController now explicitly rescues InvalidKeyError with appropriate HTTP status codes.

    [CVE-2026-33195]

    Mike Dalessio

  • Prevent glob injection in DiskService#delete_prefixed.

    Escape glob metacharacters in the resolved path before passing to Dir.glob.

    Note that this change breaks any existing code that is relying on delete_prefixed to expand
    glob metacharacters. This change presumes that is unintended behavior (as other storage services
    do not respect these metacharacters).

    [CVE-2026-33202]
