Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202208-28 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Puma, the worst of which could result in denial of service. Versions less than 5.6.4 are affected.

Arvados is an open source platform for managing, processing, and sharing genomic and other large scientific and biomedical data. A remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in the Arvados Workbench allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code via specially crafted JSON payloads. This exists in all versions up to 2.4.1 and is fixed in 2.4.2. This vulnerability is specific to the Ruby on Rails Workbench application (“Workbench 1”). We do not believe any other Arvados components, including the TypesScript browser-based Workbench application (“Workbench 2”) or API Server, are vulnerable to this attack. For versions of Arvados earlier than 2.4.2: remove the Ruby-based "Workbench 1" app ("apt-get remove arvados-workbench") from your installation as a workaround.

Before version 0.1.3 `update_by_case` gem used custom sql strings, and it was not sanitized, making it vulnerable to sql injection. Upgrade to version >= 0.1.3 that uses `Arel` instead to construct the resulting sql statement, with sanitized sql.

wolfSSL before 5.4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via DTLS because a check for return-routability can be skipped.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in administrate 0.1.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to hijack the user's OAuth autorization code.
