NVD Description

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

Nokogiri is an open source XML and HTML library for the Ruby programming language. Prior to 1.19.4, Nokogiri contains a bug when calling certain methods on allocated-but-uninitialized native wrapper classes that inherit from Nokogiri::XML::Node. This caused a NULL pointer dereference that could crash the process. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.19.4.
