<impact type="low">
|

|
|
|
<p>A remote attacker could use specially crafted input to execute arbitrary
|
|
|
|
|
|
SQL statements.

</impact>
|
|

|
<workaround>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The vulnerability may be mitigated by converting the input to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
expected value. This is accomplished by changing instances of
|
|
|
|
|
|
‘Post.find_by_id(params[:id])’ in code using Active Record to
|
|
|
|
|
|
‘Post.find_by_id(params[:id].to_s)’
|
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>All Active Record users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
