    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2009-3086 CVE-2009-4214
    Debian Bug : 545063 558685

    Two vulnerabilities were discovered in Ruby on Rails, a web
    application framework. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
    project identifies the following problems:

    CVE-2009-3086
    The cookie store may be vulnerability to a timing attack,
    potentially allowing remote attackers to forge message
    digests.

    CVE-2009-4214
    A cross-site scripting vulnerability in the strip_tags
    function allows remote user-assisted attackers to inject
    arbitrary web script.

    For the oldstable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed
    in version 2.1.0-7+lenny0.2.

    For the other distributions, these problems have been fixed in version
    2.2.3-2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.
