3. Description:
Ruby on Rails is a model-view-controller (MVC) framework for web
application development. Action Pack implements the controller and the view
components.
Security Fix(es):
* It was discovered that Action View tag helpers did not escape quotes when
using strings declared as HTML safe as attribute values. A remote attacker
could use this flaw to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.
