Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-642-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'ruby-activerecord-3.2' package(s) announced via the DLA-642-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'ruby-activerecord-3.2' package(s) announced via the DLA-642-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Active Record in Ruby on Rails 4.1.x before 4.1.14.1, 4.2.x before 4.2.5.1, and 5.x before 5.0.0.beta1.1 supports the use of instance-level writers for class accessors, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended validation steps via crafted parameters.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 3.2.6-5+deb7u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby-activerecord-3.2 packages.
