| Vulnerability | Title and context | CVSS | EPSS | PoCs | Signals | STIX action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
CVE-2025-26803MEDIUM | Phusion Passenger denial of serviceThe http parser in Phusion Passenger 6.0.21 through 6.0.25 before 6.0.26 allows a denial of service during parsing of a request with an invalid HTTP method. CWE-908Feb 24, 2025 | CVSS5.3v3.1 | EPSS0.595% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
CVE-2012-6135HIGH | RubyGems passenger gem allows remote attackers to delete filesRubyGems passenger 4.0.0 betas 1 and 2 allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files during the startup process. CWE-20Nov 19, 2019 | CVSS7.5v3.1 | EPSS2.31% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
CVE-2018-12615MEDIUM | Phusion Passenger incorrect permission assignmentAn issue was discovered in switchGroup() in agent/ExecHelper/ExecHelperMain.cpp in Phusion Passenger before 5.3.2. The set of groups (gidset) is not set correctly, leaving it up to randomness (i.e., uninitialized memory) which supplementary groups are actually being set while lowering privileges. CWE-732Jun 21, 2018 | CVSS5.3v3.0 | EPSS1.2% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
CVE-2018-12026CRITICAL | Phusion Passenger SpawningKit Contains Arbitrary Read/Write VulnerabilityDuring the spawning of a malicious Passenger-managed application, SpawningKit in Phusion Passenger 5.3.x before 5.3.2 allows such applications to replace key files or directories in the spawning communication directory with symlinks. This then could result in arbitrary reads and writes, which in turn can result in information disclosure and privilege escalation. CWE-59Jun 17, 2018 | CVSS9.8v3.0 | EPSS1.95% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
Insecure Permissions in Phusion PassengerAn Insecure Permissions vulnerability in SpawningKit in Phusion Passenger 5.3.x before 5.3.2 causes information disclosure in the following situation: given a Passenger-spawned application process that reports that it listens on a certain Unix domain socket, if any of the parent directories of said socket are writable by a normal user that is not the application's user, then that non-application user can swap that directory with something else, resulting in traffic being redirected to a non-appl… | CVSS-v3.1 | EPSS1.09% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX | |
CVE-2018-12028HIGH | Incorrect Access Control in Phusion PassengerAn Incorrect Access Control vulnerability in SpawningKit in Phusion Passenger 5.3.x before 5.3.2 allows a Passenger-managed malicious application, upon spawning a child process, to report an arbitrary different PID back to Passenger's process manager. If the malicious application then generates an error, it would cause Passenger's process manager to kill said reported arbitrary PID. CWE-732Jun 17, 2018 | CVSS7.8v3.0 | EPSS0.9% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
CVE-2018-12029HIGH | Phusion Passenger Race Condition Allows Privilege EscalationA race condition in the nginx module in Phusion Passenger 3.x through 5.x before 5.3.2 allows local escalation of privileges when a non-standard passenger_instance_registry_dir with insufficiently strict permissions is configured. Replacing a file with a symlink after the file was created, but before it was chowned, leads to the target of the link being chowned via the path. Targeting sensitive files such as root's crontab file allows privilege escalation. CWE-362Jun 17, 2018 | CVSS7.0v3.0 | EPSS0.276% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
CVE-2017-16355MEDIUM | Phusion Passenger information disclosureIn agent/Core/SpawningKit/Spawner.h in Phusion Passenger 5.1.10 (fixed in Passenger Open Source 5.1.11 and Passenger Enterprise 5.1.10), if Passenger is running as root, it is possible to list the contents of arbitrary files on a system by symlinking a file named REVISION from the application root folder to a file of choice and querying passenger-status --show=xml. CWE-200Dec 14, 2017 | CVSS4.7v3.1 | EPSS0.358% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
CVE-2016-10345HIGH | Phusion Passenger uses a known /tmp filenameIn Phusion Passenger before 5.1.0, a known /tmp filename was used during passenger-install-nginx-module execution, which could allow local attackers to gain the privileges of the passenger user. CWE-264Apr 18, 2017 | CVSS7.8v3.0 | EPSS0.464% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX |
Phusion Passenger allows remote attackers to spoof headersagent/Core/Controller/SendRequest.cpp in Phusion Passenger before 4.0.60 and 5.0.x before 5.0.22, when used in Apache integration mode or in standalone mode without a filtering proxy, allows remote attackers to spoof headers passed to applications by using an _ (underscore) character instead of a - (dash) character in an HTTP header, as demonstrated by an X_User header. CWE-20Jan 8, 2016 | CVSS3.7v3.0 | EPSS2.36% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX | |
Insecure use of temporary files in passengerPhusion Passenger before 4.0.37 allows local users to write to certain files and directories via a symlink attack on (1) control_process.pid or a (2) generation-* file.

Insecure use of temporary files in Phusion passengerPhusion Passenger 4.0.37 allows local users to write to certain files and directories via a symlink attack on (1) control_process.pid or a (2) generation-* file. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-1831.

Phusion Passenger Denial of ServicePhusion Passenger gem before 3.0.21 and 4.0.x before 4.0.5 for Ruby allows local users to cause a denial of service (prevent application start) or gain privileges by pre-creating a temporary "config" file in a directory with a predictable name in /tmp/ before it is used by the gem. | CVSS4.6v2.0 | EPSS0.4% | PoCs0 | SignalsNot listed in CISA KEVNo known ransomware useNo Nuclei templates | STIX | |
insecure temporary directory usage in passengerext/common/ServerInstanceDir.h in Phusion Passenger gem before 4.0.6 for Ruby allows local users to gain privileges or possibly change the ownership of arbitrary directories via a symlink attack on a directory with a predictable name in /tmp/.
