    Smashing Cross-site Scripting vulnerability

    CVE-2021-35440 · GHSA-254j-mmc5-qhpx

    Affected
    • RubyGems smashing < 1.3.5
    Fixed in
    1.3.5· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Smashing 1.3.4 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS). A URL for a widget can be crafted and used to execute JavaScript on the victim's computer. The JavaScript code can then steal data available in the session/cookies depending on the user environment (e.g. if re-using internal URL's for deploying, or cookies that are very permissive) private information may be retrieved by the attacker.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.3.5 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
