    Package : rails
    Vulnerability : cross site scripting
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2012-1099
    Debian Bug : 668607

    Sergey Nartimov discovered that in Rails, a Ruby based framework for
    web development, when developers generate html options tags manually,
    user input concatenated with manually built tags may not be escaped
    and an attacker can inject arbitrary HTML into the document.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.3.5-1.2+squeeze3.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy) and unstable distribution (sid),
    this problem has been fixed in version 2.3.14.

    We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.
