Sinatra is a domain-specific language for creating web applications in Ruby. In versions prior to 4.2.0, there is a denial of service vulnerability in the If-Match and If-None-Match header parsing component of Sinatra, if the etag method is used when constructing the response. Carefully crafted input can cause If-Match and If-None-Match header parsing in Sinatra to take an unexpected amount of time, possibly resulting in a denial of service attack vector. This header is typically involved in generating the ETag header value. Any applications that use the etag method when generating a response are impacted. Version 4.2.0 fixes the issue.
