Vulnerability Title
Nokogiri: Possible Use-After-Free when setting `Document#root=` to an invalid node type
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Nokogiri is an open source XML and HTML library for the Ruby programming language. Prior to 1.19.4, Nokogiri::XML::Document#root= validated only that the new root was a Nokogiri::XML::Node, allowing a DTD node to be set as the document root. The result is a heap use-after-free during garbage collection or finalization, leading to an invalid memory read or potentially a segfault. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.19.4.
