 Package : ruby-sinatra Version : 2.0.5-4+deb10u2 CVE ID : CVE-2022-45442 Debian Bug : 1025125

 It was discovered that there was a potential reflected file download (RFD) vulnerability in ruby-sinatra, a Ruby library for writing HTTP applications. A Content-Disposition HTTP header was being incorrectly derived from a potentially user-supplied filename.

 For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version 2.0.5-4+deb10u2.

 We recommend that you upgrade your ruby-sinatra packages.
