An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-16676 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- simple_form (RubyGems): affected all versions; fixed in 5.0.0\n- simple_form (RubyGems): affected all versions; fixed in 5.0.0\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-2019-16676/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16676/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-16676","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16676/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-16676","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r74q-gxcg-73hx","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-16676"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ruby form library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code by supplying a malicious string that is invoked as a method call in the Simple Form library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"simple_form","vendor":"plataformatec"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Plataformatec Simple Form has Incorrect Access Control in file_method? in lib/simple_form/form_builder.rb, because a user-supplied string is invoked as a method call.","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":"Improper Input Validation in simple_form","id":"CVE-2019-16676","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2019"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16677"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["5.0.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"simple_form","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-r74q-gxcg-73hx"},{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":["5.0.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"simple_form","purl":"pkg:gem/simple_form","source":"GHSA-r74q-gxcg-73hx"}],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16675"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-09-30","related":[],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code by supplying a malicious string that is invoked as a method call in the Simple Form library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16676/"}
