Ruby on Rails before 1.1.5 allows remote attackers to execute Ruby code with "severe" or "serious" impact via a File Upload request with an HTTP header that modifies the LOADPATH variable, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-4112.

The session fixation protection mechanism in cgiprocess.rb in Rails 1.2.4, as used in Ruby on Rails, removes the :cookieonly attribute from the DEFAULTSESSIONOPTIONS constant, which effectively causes cookieonly to be applied only to the first instantiation of CgiRequest, which allows remote attackers to conduct session fixation attacks. NOTE: this is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-5380.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in actionview/lib/actionview/helpers/numberhelper.rb in Ruby on Rails before 3.2.17, 4.0.x before 4.0.3, and 4.1.x before 4.1.0.beta2 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) format, (2) negativeformat, or (3) units parameter to the (a) numbertocurrency, (b) numbertopercentage, or (c) numbertohuman helper.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in actionpack/lib/actionview/helpers/sanitizehelper.rb in the striptags helper in Ruby on Rails before 2.3.16, 3.0.x before 3.0.17, 3.1.x before 3.1.8, and 3.2.x before 3.2.8 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via malformed HTML markup.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in activesupport/lib/activesupport/coreext/string/outputsafety.rb in Ruby on Rails before 2.3.16, 3.0.x before , 3.1.x before 3.1.8, and 3.2.x before 3.2.8 might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving a ' (quote) character.
