NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ruby2.5-devel package and not the ruby2.5-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the CGI gem before 0.4.2 for Ruby, the CGI::Cookie.parse method in the CGI library contains a potential Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability. The method does not impose any limit on the length of the raw cookie value it processes. This oversight can lead to excessive resource consumption when parsing extremely large cookies.
