Description

Active Support is a toolkit of support libraries and Ruby core extensions extracted from the Rails framework. `NumberToDelimitedConverter` uses a lookahead-based regular expression with `gsub!` to insert thousands delimiters. Prior to versions 8.1.2.1, 8.0.4.1, and 7.2.3.1, the interaction between the repeated lookahead group and `gsub!` can produce quadratic time complexity on long digit strings. Versions 8.1.2.1, 8.0.4.1, and 7.2.3.1 contain a patch.

Affected configurations

• rubyonrails rails (< 7.2.3.1) • rubyonrails rails (>= 8.0.0 < 8.0.4.1) • rubyonrails rails (>= 8.1.0 < 8.1.2.1)
