Remediation
Package fixes recorded
Fix versions are recorded for 1 of 1 mapped packages. Check each release branch and any separate product guidance.
What this means
Nokogiri versions before 1.19.5 have a vulnerability where the NONET parse option does not block external DTDs and entities with short-form IPv4 hosts or absolute paths, potentially enabling SSRF. An application parsing untrusted XML with DTDLOAD, DTDVALID, or NOENT could be affected. Only JRuby is affected.

Original source description
Read the full publisher description
Summary
On JRuby, the NONET parse option did not block an external DTD or entity whose system identifier used a short-form IPv4 host, such as http://127.1/ or http://169.254.43518/, or was an absolute path such as /x.dtd in a document parsed from a network URL. An application that parses untrusted XML with DTDLOAD, DTDVALID or NOENT could be made to send network requests, potentially enabling SSRF.
Nokogiri 1.19.5 applies the XML::Schema check from GHSA-8678-w3jw-xfc2: with NONET set, only local resources are loaded.
Only JRuby is affected. Default parse options are not affected.
Severity
The Nokogiri maintainers have evaluated this as low severity.
Mitigation
Upgrade to Nokogiri 1.19.5 or later, or do not enable DTDLOAD, DTDVALID or NOENT for untrusted input.
