DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Ruby on Rails, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

The vulnerability is caused due to Active Record not properly
sanitising nested query parameters and can be exploited to manipulate
SQL queries.

NOTE: A weakness also exists in the parameter parsing on Rack when
using ActionPack and may allow the insertion of "IS NULL" where
clauses into SQL queries.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 3.0.13, 3.1.5, and
3.2.4.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 3.0.13, 3.1.5, or 3.2.4.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits Ben Murphy.
