Description
## CVE-2026-34785 - High Severity Vulnerability
Vulnerable Library - rack-3.2.3.gem
Rack provides a minimal, modular and adaptable interface for developing
web applications in Ruby. By wrapping HTTP requests and responses in
the simplest way possible, it unifies and distills the API for web
servers, web frameworks, and software in between (the so-called
middleware) into a single method call.
Library home page: https://rubygems.org/gems/rack-3.2.3.gem
Path to dependency file: /Gemfile.lock
Path to vulnerable library: /vendor/cache/rack-3.2.3.gem
Dependency Hierarchy:
- manageiq-style-1.5.9.gem (Root Library)
- :x: **rack-3.2.3.gem** (Vulnerable Library)
Found in base branch: master
Rack is a modular Ruby web server interface. Prior to versions 2.2.23, 3.1.21, and 3.2.6, Rack::Static determines whether a request should be served as a static file using a simple string prefix check. When configured with URL prefixes such as "/css", it matches any request path that begins with that string, including unrelated paths such as "/css-config.env" or "/css-backup.sql". As a result, files under the static root whose names merely share the configured prefix may be served unintentionally, leading to information disclosure. This issue has been patched in versions 2.2.23, 3.1.21, and 3.2.6.
