Description

Addressable is an alternative implementation to the URI implementation that is part of Ruby's standard library. From 2.0.0 until 2.9.1, the pure-Ruby Addressable::IDNA.to_unicode implementation decodes invalid Punycode A-labels instead of returning them unchanged. Labels that decode to ASCII text or fail to convert back to the same A-label can therefore make Addressable::URI#display_uri show a trusted-looking host while host, normalized_host, and the connection target retain the attacker-controlled encoded host. A trusted-name comparison using Addressable::IDNA.to_unicode output can also treat two different hosts as the same without displaying the URI. The native libidn implementation, to_ascii, and normalized_host are unaffected. This issue is fixed in version 2.9.1.
