    Package : rails
    Vulnerability : several vulnerabilities
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2011-0446 CVE-2011-0447
    Debian Bug : 614864

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in Rails, the Ruby web
    application framework. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

    CVE-2011-0446

    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities when JavaScript
    encoding is used, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web
    script or HTML.

    CVE-2011-0447

    Rails does not properly validate HTTP requests that contain an
    X-Requested-With header, which makes it easier for remote attackers
    to conduct cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.

    For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.1.0-7+lenny0.1.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.3.5-1.2+squeeze0.1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.3.11-0.1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.
