    GitLab Grit Gem for Ruby contains a flaw allowing arbitrary commands to be executed

    CVE-2013-4489 · GHSA-95xq-v4m2-fq3r

    Affected
    • RubyGems gitlab-grit < 2.6.1
    Fixed in
    2.6.1· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    The Grit gem for Ruby, as used in GitLab 5.2 before 5.4.1 and 6.x before 6.2.3, allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands, as demonstrated by the search box for the GitLab code search feature. GitLab Grit Gem for Ruby contains a flaw in the app/contexts/searchcontext.rb script. The issue is triggered when input passed via the code search box is not properly sanitized, which allows strings to be evaluated by the shell. This may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 2.6.1 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
