### Summary
18+
19+
A guest mruby script running inside the Kobako sandbox can execute
20+
arbitrary Ruby in the host process, fully escaping the sandbox.
21+
22+
### Impact
23+
24+
Complete sandbox escape leading to remote code execution in the host process,
25+
defeating the gem's central guarantee of isolating untrusted mruby scripts.
26+
Any deployment that runs untrusted or attacker-influenced scripts is affected.
27+
All released versions (0.1.0 through 0.9.0) are vulnerable; the dispatcher
28+
carried the same unguarded `public_send` sink under three successive names
29+
(`registry` → `rpc` → `transport`).
30+
31+
### Credits
32+
33+
Reported and fixed by Ahmed Al Hafoudh.

notes: |
47+
- cvss_v3 from GHSA
48+
- CVE is reserved, but not published.
49+
- Details on Patch:
50+
- Fixed in 0.9.1. The dispatcher now rejects any method whose resolved
51+
owner is a core/meta module (`BasicObject`, `Kernel`, `Object`,
52+
`Module`, `Class`), so only methods the bound object itself defines —
53+
or dynamically handles via `method_missing` — remain reachable.
54+
The ambient reflection methods (`send`, `__send__`, `public_send`,
55+
`instance_eval`, `instance_exec`, `method`, `instance_variable_get`,
56+
…) are all owned by those modules and are blocked.
