<define-tag description>LTS security update</define-tag>
<define-tag moreinfo>
<p>Two vulnerabilities were found in Ruby on Rails, a MVC ruby-based
framework geared for web application development, which could lead to
remote code execution and untrusted user input usage, depending on the
application.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2020-8164">CVE-2020-8164</a>
<p>Strong parameters bypass vector in ActionPack. In some cases user
supplied information can be inadvertently leaked from Strong
Parameters. Specifically the return value of `each`, or
`each_value`, or `each_pair` will return the underlying
<q>untrusted</q> hash of data that was read from the parameters.
Applications that use this return value may be inadvertently use
untrusted user input.</p></li>
<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2020-8165">CVE-2020-8165</a>
<p>Potentially unintended unmarshalling of user-provided objects in
MemCacheStore. There is potentially unexpected behaviour in the
MemCacheStore where, when untrusted user input is written to the
cache store using the `raw: true` parameter, re-reading the result
from the cache can evaluate the user input as a Marshalled object
instead of plain text. Unmarshalling of untrusted user input can
have impact up to and including RCE. At a minimum, this
vulnerability allows an attacker to inject untrusted Ruby objects
into a web application.</p>
<p>In addition to upgrading to the latest versions of Rails,
developers should ensure that whenever they are calling
`Rails.cache.fetch` they are using consistent values of the `raw`
parameter for both reading and writing.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>For Debian 8 <q>Jessie</q>, these problems have been fixed in version
2:4.1.8-1+deb8u7.</p>
<p>We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.</p>

these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
