description

Puma deployments that accept connections directly from clients can be disrupted through exhaustion of the process file-descriptor limit. An unauthenticated attacker can sustain idle connections, causing excessive logging that may exhaust disk space and stop Puma from accepting new connections. Deployments protected by a proxy or load balancer that limits connections to Puma are not affected by this condition.

mitigation

Upgrade Puma to version 7.2.2 or 8.0.3. Limit per-client connections at a reverse proxy or load balancer, and ensure Puma logs are rotated or written to storage that cannot fill the host disk.

fixed in 7.2.2, 8.0.3
