CVE-2017-17405
At a glance Severity Not available EPSS EPSS 73.83 % · percentile 99 (2026-10-27) State PUBLISHED Published 2017-12-15 Updated 2024-08-05 Assigner mitre NVD status Modified Description Ruby before 2.4.3 allows Net::FTP command injection. Net::FTP#get, getbinaryfile, gettextfile, put, putbinaryfile, and puttextfile use Kernel#open to open a local file. If the localfile argument starts with the "|" pipe character, the command following the pipe character is executed. The default value of localfile is File.basename(remotefile), so malicious FTP servers could cause arbitrary command execution.
