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.

Crass 是一个完全符合 CSS 语法第 3 级规范的 Ruby CSS 解析器。在 1.0.7 版本之前,当 Crass 解析包含非 ASCII 字符的输入时,由于对多字节字符位置跟踪机制存在效率问题,会导致解析时间呈超线性增长。因此,由攻击者控制的、包含大量非 ASCII 字符的 CSS 输入可能导致 CPU 过度消耗,进而引发拒绝服务(DoS)攻击。该问题已在 1.0.7 版本中修复。

Vulnerability Title
Crass: Non-ASCII characters cause superlinear CPU consumption
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Crass is a Ruby CSS parser that's fully compliant with the CSS Syntax Level 3 specification. Prior to 1.0.7, when Crass parses input containing `non-ASCII characters`, inefficiencies in tracking the positions of `multi-byte characters` result in superlinear parsing time. An attacker-controlled CSS input consisting of many `non-ASCII characters` can therefore cause excessive CPU consumption and potentially denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.7.
