CVE-2025-71407— Nokogiri before 1.18.3 Stack Buffer Overflow and Use-After-Free

Quick assessment

Affected
sparklemotion nokogiri
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

在 Nokogiri 1.18.3 之前的版本中,存在两个安全漏洞: 1. 栈缓冲区溢出漏洞:当使用长的 QName 前缀报告 DTD 验证错误时,libxml2 中会发生栈缓冲区溢出。 2. 释放后使用(use-after-free)漏洞:在对不受信任的 XML 模式进行验证时,会发生释放后使用漏洞。 攻击者可以通过提供恶意的 DTD 内容或不受信任的 XSD 文件来触发这些漏洞,从而导致拒绝服务(Denial of Service)或潜在的代码执行。
