A denial of service flaw was found in ruby-rack. An attacker crafting multipart POST requests can cause Rack's multipart parser to take much longer than expected, leading to a denial of service.

A flaw was found in ruby gem-rack. This flaw allows a malicious actor to craft requests that can cause shell escape sequences to be written to the terminal via rack's Lint middleware and CommonLogger middleware. This issue can leverage these escape sequences to execute commands in the victim's terminal.

A flaw was found in rubygem-rack. An attacker may be able to trick a vulnerable application into processing an insecure (non-SSL) or cross-origin request if they can gain the ability to write arbitrary cookies that are sent to the application. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data integrity.

A directory traversal vulnerability exists in rack < 2.2.0 that allows an attacker perform directory traversal vulnerability in the Rack::Directory app that is bundled with Rack which could result in information disclosure.
