[SECURITY] [DLA 641-1] ruby-activesupport-3.2 security update

[news 28]

Package : ruby-activesupport-3.2

Version : 3.2_3.2.6-6+deb7u3

CVE ID : CVE-2016-0753

 

Active Support in Ruby on Rails 4.1.x before 4.1.14.1, 4.2.x before

4.2.5.1, and 5.x before 5.0.0.beta1.1 supports the use of instance-level

writers for class accessors, which allows remote attackers to bypass

intended validation steps via crafted parameters.

 

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version

3.2_3.2.6-6+deb7u3.

 

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby-activesupport-3.2 packages.
