Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for rails.
CVE-2007-6077[0]:
| The session fixation protection mechanism in cgi_process.rb in Rails 1.2.4, as
| used in Ruby on Rails, removes the :cookie_only attribute from the
| DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS constant, which effectively causes :cookie_only to
only
| be applied 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
If you fix this vulnerability please also include the CVE id
in your changelog entry.
Since this is caused by an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-5380 I set the severity
to grave.
There is a patch available on:
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10048
For further information:
[0] http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-6077
Kind regards
Nico
