Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-5249 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- puma (RubyGems): affected all versions; fixed in 3.12.4\n- puma (RubyGems): affected all versions; fixed in 3.12.4\n- puma (RubyGems): affected from 4.0.0; fixed in 4.3.3\n- puma (RubyGems): affected from 4.0.0; fixed in 4.3.3\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-2020-5249/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-5249/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-5249","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-5249/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-5249","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2020-5249","GHSA-33vf-4xgg-9r58"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","other"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Ruby web server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can inject malicious content via HTTP response splitting in Puma's early-hints headers if untrusted input is allowed, enabling XSS or header injection.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"puma","vendor":"puma"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-74","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component"},{"id":"CWE-113","name":"Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers"}],"description":"In Puma (RubyGem) before 4.3.3 and 3.12.4, if an application using Puma allows untrusted input in an early-hints header, an attacker can use a carriage return character to end the header and inject malicious content, such as additional headers or an entirely new response body. This vulnerability is known as HTTP Response Splitting. While not an attack in itself, response splitting is a vector for several other attacks, such as cross-site scripting (XSS).
