NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rails package and not the rails package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:14 relevant fixed versions and status.

Action Pack is a framework for handling and responding to web requests. Prior to 8.1.4.1 and 8.0.5.2, ActionController::Live::Buffer#close pushes its end-of-stream marker onto the response's bounded queue while it holds the buffer's monitor. When the client has stopped reading and the queue is full, the push blocks, and Buffer#abort, which runs when the client disconnects or a write times out, waits indefinitely for the same monitor. Each such response could permanently hold a web server thread and its ActionController::Live thread, possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability through thread exhaustion. Applications that stream responses with ActionController::Live, including send_stream, are affected. Applications that serve large files through Active Storage proxy mode are exposed to unauthenticated clients. This issue is fixed in versions 8.1.4.1 and 8.0.5.2.
