Tracker summary

CVE-2012-5370 not yet assigned priority: Debian including 1 source packages (jruby), 4 status rows across 4 suites (bookworm, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 4.

Description:

JRuby computes hash values without properly restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via crafted input to an application that maintains a hash table, as demonstrated by a universal multicollision attack against the MurmurHash2 algorithm, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-4838.
