SCA: security update for ruby-saml (GHSA-92rq-c8cf-prrq)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 421108

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- ruby-saml provides security assertion markup language (SAML) single sign-on (SSO) for Ruby. Prior to
versions 1.12.4 and 1.18.0, ruby-saml is susceptible to remote Denial of Service (DoS) with compressed
SAML responses. ruby-saml uses zlib to decompress SAML responses in case they're compressed. It is
possible to bypass the message size check with a compressed assertion since the message size is checked
before inflation and not after. This issue may lead to remote Denial of Service (DoS). Versions 1.12.4 and
1.18.0 fix the issue. (CVE-2025-25293)
