NewCVE-2025-24293 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade activestorage to version 7.1.5.2, 7.2.2.2, 8.0.2.1 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Command Injection due to untrusted user input being accepted as transformation methods or parameters. An attacker can execute arbitrary commands on the server by supplying crafted input that circumvents safe defaults.
Note:
This is exploitable if the application uses both the image_processing gem and mini_magick as the image processor, and accepts arbitrary user input for transformation methods or parameters.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by strictly validating user-supplied methods and parameters and deploying a strong ImageMagick security policy.
