Summary

Ruby LSP is an implementation of the language server protocol for Ruby. Prior to Shopify.ruby-lsp version 0.10.2 and ruby-lsp version 0.26.9, the rubyLsp.branch VS Code workspace setting was interpolated without sanitization into a generated Gemfile, allowing arbitrary Ruby code execution when a user opens a project containing a malicious .vscode/settings.json. This issue has been patched in Shopify.ruby-lsp version 0.10.2 and ruby-lsp version 0.26.9.

Fencer Vulns keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
