An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2013-6460 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- nokogiri (RubyGems): affected from 1.5.0; fixed in 1.5.11\n- nokogiri (RubyGems): affected from 1.5.0; fixed in 1.5.11\n- nokogiri (RubyGems): affected from 1.6.0; fixed in 1.6.1\n- nokogiri (RubyGems): affected from 1.6.0; fixed in 1.6.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6460/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6460/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-6460","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6460/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-6460","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-62qp-3fxm-9wxf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ruby XML library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in applications using the Nokogiri Ruby gem by submitting XML documents that trigger an infinite loop.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"nokogiri","vendor":"nokogiri"},{"product":"cloudforms_management_engine","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_mrg","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"openstack","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"satellite","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"subscription_asset_manager","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-776","name":"Improper Restriction of Recursive Entity References in DTDs"}],"description":"Nokogiri gem 1.5.x has Denial of Service via infinite loop when parsing XML documents","ecosystems":["RubyGems"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Nokogiri vulnerable to DoS while parsing XML documents","id":"CVE-2013-6460","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","product":"debian:debian_linux","products":["debian:debian_linux","redhat:enterprise_mrg","redhat:openstack","redhat:satellite"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2013"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Nokogiri vulnerable to DoS while parsing XML entities","id":"CVE-2013-6461"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["1.5.11"],"introduced":["1.5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nokogiri","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-62qp-3fxm-9wxf"},{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["1.5.11"],"introduced":["1.5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nokogiri","purl":"pkg:gem/nokogiri","source":"GHSA-62qp-3fxm-9wxf"},{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["1.6.1"],"introduced":["1.6.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nokogiri","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-62qp-3fxm-9wxf"},{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["1.6.1"],"introduced":["1.6.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nokogiri","purl":"pkg:gem/nokogiri","source":"GHSA-62qp-3fxm-9wxf"}],"prev":{"headline":"will_paginate Cross-site Scripting vulnerability","id":"CVE-2013-6459"},"products":["Nokogiri gem"],"published":"2019-11-05","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"ProFTPD Improper Access Control","id":"CVE-2015-3306","kev_date_added":"2026-10-08","published":"2015-05-18"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"RoundCube Webmail Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2025-49113","kev_date_added":"2026-02-20","published":"2025-06-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU InetUtils Argument Injection","id":"CVE-2026-24061","kev_date_added":"2026-01-26","published":"2026-01-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions","id":"CVE-2025-39682","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-09-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2024-9680","kev_date_added":"2024-10-15","published":"2024-10-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"RARLAB UnRAR Directory Traversal","id":"CVE-2022-30333","kev_date_added":"2022-08-09","published":"2022-05-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Roundcube Webmail SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-44026","kev_date_added":"2023-06-22","published":"2021-11-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["Ruby"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in applications using the Nokogiri Ruby gem by submitting XML documents that trigger an infinite loop.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6460/"}
