Hi, The following vulnerability was published for ruby-bindata. CVE-2021-32823[0]: | In the bindata RubyGem before version 2.4.10 there is a potential | denial-of-service vulnerability. In affected versions it is very slow | for certain classes in BinData to be created. For example | BinData::Bit100000, BinData::Bit100001, BinData::Bit100002, | BinData::Bit<N>. In combination with | <user_input>.constantize there is a potential for a CPU-based | DoS. In version 2.4.10 bindata improved the creation time of Bits and | Integers.
