In Nokogiri versions <= 1.11.0.rc3, XML Schemas parsed by Nokogiri::XML::Schema are trusted by default, allowing external resources to be accessed over the network, potentially enabling XXE or SSRF attacks.
This behavior is counter to the security policy followed by Nokogiri maintainers, which is to treat all input as untrusted by default whenever possible.
Please note that this security fix was pushed into a new minor version, 1.11.x, rather than a patch release to the 1.10.x branch, because it is a breaking change for some schemas and the risk was assessed to be "Low Severity".
Affected Versions
Nokogiri <= 1.10.10 as well as prereleases 1.11.0.rc1, 1.11.0.rc2, and 1.11.0.rc3
Nokogiri::XML::Schema trusts input by default, exposing risk of an XXE vulnerability
Description
In Nokogiri versions <= 1.11.0.rc3, XML Schemas parsed by Nokogiri::XML::Schema
are trusted by default, allowing external resources to be accessed over the
network, potentially enabling XXE or SSRF attacks.
This behavior is counter to
the security policy followed by Nokogiri maintainers, which is to treat all input
as untrusted by default whenever possible.
Please note that this security
fix was pushed into a new minor version, 1.11.x, rather than a patch release to
the 1.10.x branch, because it is a breaking change for some schemas and the risk
was assessed to be "Low Severity".
Affected Versions
Nokogiri <= 1.10.10 as well as prereleases 1.11.0.rc1, 1.11.0.rc2, and 1.11.0.rc3
[CRuby] Passing non-Node objects to Document#root= now raises an ArgumentError exception. Previously this likely segfaulted. [#1900]
[JRuby] Passing non-Node objects to Document#root= now raises an ArgumentError exception. Previously this raised a TypeError exception.
[CRuby] arm64/aarch64 systems (like Apple's M1) can now compile libxml2 and libxslt from source (though we continue to strongly advise users to install the native gems for the best possible experience)
1.11.2 / 2021-03-11
Fixed
[CRuby] NodeSet may now safely contain Node objects from multiple documents. Previously the GC lifecycle of the parent Document objects could lead to nodes being GCed while still in scope. [#1952]
[CRuby+Windows] Enable Nokogumbo (and other downstream gems) to compile and link against nokogiri.so by including LDFLAGS in Nokogiri::VERSION_INFO. [#2167]
[CRuby] {XML,HTML}::Document.parse now invokes #initialize exactly once. Previously #initialize was invoked twice on each object.
[JRuby] {XML,HTML}::Document.parse now invokes #initialize exactly once. Previously #initialize was not called, which was a problem for subclassing such as done by Loofah.
Improved
Reduce the number of object allocations needed when parsing an HTML::DocumentFragment. [#2087] (Thanks, @ashmaroli!)
[JRuby] Update the algorithm used to calculate Node#line to be wrong less-often. The underlying parser, Xerces, does not track line numbers, and so we've always used a hacky solution for this method. [#1223, #2177]
Introduce --enable-system-libraries and --disable-system-libraries flags to extconf.rb. These flags provide the same functionality as --use-system-libraries and the NOKOGIRI_USE_SYSTEM_LIBRARIES environment variable, but are more idiomatic. [#2193] (Thanks, @eregon!)
[TruffleRuby] --disable-static is now the default on TruffleRuby when the packaged libraries are used. This is more flexible and compiles faster. (Note, though, that the default on TR is still to use system libraries.) [#2191, #2193] (Thanks, @eregon!)
Changed
Nokogiri::XML::Path is now a Module (previously it has been a Class). It has been acting solely as a Module since v1.0.0. See 8461c74.
v1.11.1 / 2021-01-06
Fixed
[CRuby] If libxml-ruby is loaded before nokogiri, the SAX and Push parsers no longer call libxml-ruby's handlers. Instead, they defensively override the libxml2 global handler before parsing. [#2168]
Note that two additional CVEs were addressed upstream but are not relevant to this release. CVE-2021-3516 via xmllint is not present in Nokogiri, and CVE-2020-7595 has been patched in Nokogiri since v1.10.8 (see #1992).
Please see #2233 for a more complete analysis of these CVEs and patches.
Dependencies
[CRuby] vendored libxml2 is updated from 2.9.10 to 2.9.12. (Note that 2.9.11 was skipped because it was superseded by 2.9.12 a few hours after its release.)
