Subject: [ruby-core:111191] [Ruby master Misc#19178] How does CRuby handle CVE issues in stdlib gems which get patched?
Date: Sat, 03 Dec 2022 23:08:59 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.journal-100475.20221203230858.52585@ruby-lang.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: redmine.issue-19178.20221203211952.52585@ruby-lang.org

Issue #19178 has been updated by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA).


>But your way of updating "json" as a normal gem over the default gem means that whenever ruby is used with --disable-gems then the updated version is not used and thus a CVE could still be exposed.

`--disable-gems` is only development option for debugging the Ruby binary. Do not use it for application or software development.


----------------------------------------
Misc #19178: How does CRuby handle CVE issues in stdlib gems which get patched?
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19178#change-100475

* Author: Segaja (Andreas Schleifer)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
If there is a CVE issue in one of the stdlibs ( https://stdgems.org/ ) which gets patched, what is CRubys approach on how to push this critical fix to the users?

As far as I know stdlibs get only updated for the users if CRuby releases a new version. So will CRuby always release a new version if there is a critical fix an stdlib "needs" to be updated?
