CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedSavon, a Ruby SOAP client, is vulnerable to remote code execution due to improper handling of attacker-controlled WSDL operation names in versions 0.9.8 through 2.17.2, which can lead to arbitrary Ruby code being executed within the application process. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize patching to version 2.17.2 or later to mitigate this high-severity risk. This vulnerability poses a significant threat to any application relying on Savon for SOAP interactions, especially those handling sensitive data or operating in untrusted environments.

Original NVD Description
Savon is a Ruby SOAP client. From 0.9.8 until 2.17.2, Savon::Model .all_operations interpolates attacker-controlled WSDL operation names into Ruby source passed to module_eval, allowing Ruby code execution in the application process. This issue is fixed in version 2.17.2.
