SCA: security update for activestorage (GHSA-hfr4-8rjc-97m2)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 478952

Description

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

 - Active Storage makes it simple to upload and reference files in cloud services and attach those files to
 Active Record objects. Prior to 8.1.4.1 and 8.0.5.2,
 ActiveStorage::Service::GCSService#url_for_direct_upload does not bind the declared content length into
 the signed direct-upload URL, and #headers_for_direct_upload returns no length constraint, so the URL
 authorizes an upload body of any size. A direct-upload client could store a file larger than the byte_size
 it declared, and the resulting blob keeps the declared size, possibly bypassing application file size
 validations and quotas. This is the weakness that CVE-2020-8162 fixed in the S3 service. Applications that
 store files in Google Cloud Storage and accept direct uploads are affected. This issue is fixed in
 versions 8.1.4.1 and 8.0.5.2. (CVE-2026-126085)

Solution

Update the activestorage library and its related packages to version 8.0.5.2 or later.
