Improper resource allocation In ruby-nokogiri
Description
Nokogiri versions before 1.19.3 contain a memory leak in the XSLT Stylesheet transform method when processing Ruby strings containing null bytes. Attackers can exploit this by passing attacker-controlled input with null bytes to transform parameters, causing heap allocations to leak and enabling denial of service against long-running processes.
Mitigation
Update Impact
Minimal update. May introduce new vulnerabilities or breaking changes.
