Hi Aaron, thanks for the heads up :) Rails LTS has released their own patched version of 3.2.22 with the following notes:
[CVE-2016-0753] Possible Input Validation Circumvention in Active Model Original announcement here <http://railslts.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a5fae00dc6e0a722750d8a23b&id=c289fe9594&e=e86610003b> . ActiveRecord's mass assignment mechanism can be used to override some internal ActiveRecord functionality. An attacker could for example use crafted params to bypass input validations and some kinds of mass assignment protection. Despite what the announcement said, Rails 3.2 is affected. The issue is patched in the new LTS release. [CVE-2015-7581] Object leak vulnerability for wildcard controller routes in Action Pack Original announcement here. <http://railslts.us8.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=a5fae00dc6e0a722750d8a23b&id=be423f0f1d&e=e86610003b> When using wildcard routes of the form map.connect ':controller/:action' (with :controller being the important bit), an attacker could make requests to non-existent controllers resulting in a memory leak. This would cause your application to eventually run out of memory, resulting in a Denial of Service. Despite what the announcement said, Rails 3.2 is affected. The issue is patched in the new LTS release. Given they've identified 3.2 is affected by those two issues, will there be a new official release of 3.2.22 to patch those two vulnerabilities also? Have a great day!
