Alpine: ruby: security update to 2.5.8-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 406981

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- The JSON gem through 2.2.0 for Ruby, as used in Ruby 2.4 through 2.4.9, 2.5 through 2.5.7, and 2.6 through
2.6.5, has an Unsafe Object Creation Vulnerability. This is quite similar to CVE-2013-0269, but does not
rely on poor garbage-collection behavior within Ruby. Specifically, use of JSON parsing methods can lead
to creation of a malicious object within the interpreter, with adverse effects that are application-
dependent. (CVE-2020-10663)

- An issue was discovered in Ruby 2.5.x through 2.5.7, 2.6.x through 2.6.5, and 2.7.0. If a victim calls
BasicSocket#read_nonblock(requested_size, buffer, exception: false), the method resizes the buffer to fit
the requested size, but no data is copied. Thus, the buffer string provides the previous value of the
heap. This may expose possibly sensitive data from the interpreter. (CVE-2020-10933)

- ownCloud (Core) before 10.5 allows XSS in login page 'forgot password.' (CVE-2020-16255)
