## CVE-2026-34826 - Medium Severity Vulnerability
Vulnerable Library - rack-3.2.5.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.

Vulnerability Details

Rack is a modular Ruby web server interface. Prior to versions 2.2.23, 3.1.21, and 3.2.6, Rack::Utils.get_byte_ranges parses the HTTP Range header without limiting the number of individual byte ranges. Although the existing fix for CVE-2024-26141 rejects ranges whose total byte coverage exceeds the file size, it does not restrict the count of ranges. An attacker can supply many small overlapping ranges such as 0-0,0-0,0-0,... to trigger disproportionate CPU, memory, I/O, and bandwidth consumption per request. This results in a denial of service condition in Rack file-serving paths that process multipart byte range responses. This issue has been patched in versions 2.2.23, 3.1.21, and 3.2.6.

Start with /Gemfile.lock and /vendor/cache/rack-3.2.5.gem, then inspect how manageiq-style-1.6.0.gem brings Rack into the dependency tree. Upgrade Rack to a patched release such as 3.2.6 and update the recorded dependency artifacts. Done means the vulnerable 3.2.5 package is no longer referenced or cached.
