Summary
Rails Active Storage has a possible DoS vulnerability in proxy mode via multi-range requests
Details

Impact

Active Storage's proxy controller does not limit the number of byte ranges in an HTTP Range header. A request with thousands of small ranges causes disproportionate CPU usage compared to a normal request for the same file, possibly resulting in a DoS vulnerability.

Releases

The fixed releases are available at the normal locations.
