CVE-2023-27539 - Medium Severity Vulnerability
Rack provides a minimal, modular and adaptable interface for developing web applications in Ruby. By wrapping HTTP requests and responses in the simplest way possible, it unifies and distills the API for web servers, web frameworks, and software in between (the so-called middleware) into a single method call.

There is a denial of service vulnerability in the header parsing component of Rack. Carefully crafted input can cause header parsing in Rack to take an unexpected amount of time, possibly resulting in a denial of service attack vector. Any applications that parse headers using Rack (virtually all Rails applications) are impacted. The issue is fixed versions 2.2.6.4 and 3.0.6.1
