CRITICAL · CVSS 3.1 · EPSS 2.6% (pctl 85)

In your normal cycle

Critical by CVSS (9.8), but no sign of active exploitation.

Description

In versions of mruby up to and including 1.4.0, an integer overflow exists in src/vm.c::mrb_vm_exec() when handling OP_GETUPVAR in the presence of deep scope nesting, resulting in a use-after-free. An attacker that can cause Ruby code to be run can use this to possibly execute arbitrary code.
