Date: 7/31/2013

Advisory Author: Larry W. Cashdollar, @_larry0

CVE: CVE-2013-4203

Download: https://rubygems.org/gems/rgpg

The following code snippet does not sanitize user supplied input before passing it to the System () function for execution. If this ApI is used in the context of a rails application remote commands can be injected into the shell.

in lib/rgpg/gpg_helper.rb:

 68       begin
 69         outputfile.close
 70         result = system("#{commandline} > #{output_file.path} 2>&1")
 71       ensure
