Google has opened up its software-dependency database, adding to the security data available to developers and toolmakers. Now developers need to use it.

## Impact Several quadratic complexity bugs in commonmarker's underlying [`cmark-gfm`](https://github.com/github/cmark-gfm) library may lead to unbounded resource exhaustion and subsequent denial of service. The following vulnerabilities were addressed: * [CVE-2023-24824](https://github.com/github/cmark-gfm/security/advisories/GHSA-66g8-4hjf-77xh) * [CVE-2023-26485](https://github.com/github/cmark-gfm/security/advisories/GHSA-r8vr-c48j-fcc5) For more information, consult the release notes for version [`0.23.0.gfm.10`](https://github.com/github/cmark-gfm/releases/tag/0.29.0.gfm.10) and [`0.23.0.gfm.11`](https://github.com/github/cmark-gfm/releases/tag/0.29.0.gfm.11). ## Mitigation Users are advised to upgrade to commonmarker version [`0.23.9`](https://rubygems.org/gems/commonmarker/versions/0.23.9).

### Summary Nokogiri v1.14.3 upgrades the packaged version of its dependency libxml2 to [v2.10.4](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/releases/v2.10.4) from v2.10.3. libxml2 v2.10.4 addresses the following known vulnerabilities: - [CVE-2023-29469](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-29469): Hashing of empty dict strings isn't deterministic - [CVE-2023-28484](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2023-28484): Fix null deref in xmlSchemaFixupComplexType - Schemas: Fix null-pointer-deref in xmlSchemaCheckCOSSTDerivedOK Please note that this advisory only applies to the CRuby implementation of Nokogiri `< 1.14.3`, and only if the _packaged_ libraries are being used. If you've overridden defaults at installation time to use _system_ libraries instead of packaged libraries, you should instead pay attention to your distro's `libxml2` release announcements. ### Mitigation Upgrade to Nokogiri `>= 1.14.3`. Users who are unable to upgrade Nokogiri may...

### Impact Pages that are indexed in search results have their entire contents indexed, including any HTML code snippets. These HTML snippets would appear in the search results unsanitised, so it was possible to render arbitrary HTML or run arbitrary scripts. This is a low risk security issue; to exploit it, an attacker would need to find a way of committing malicious code to a page indexed by a site that uses tech-docs-gem (which are typically not editable by untrusted users). Their code would also be limited by the relatively short length that's rendered in the corresponding search result. Nevertheless, the XSS would then be triggerable by visiting a pre-constructed URL (/search/index.html?q=some+search+term), which users could be tricked into clicking on through social engineering. ### Patches This has been fixed in v3.3.1. HTML is now sanitised in search results.
