- Summary
- view_component Cross-site Scripting vulnerability
- Details
-
viewcomponent is a framework for building reusable, testable, and encapsulated view components in Ruby on Rails. Versions prior to 3.9.0 and 2.83.0 have a cross-site scripting vulnerability that has the potential to impact anyone rendering a component directly from a controller with the viewcomponent gem. Note that only components that define a
#callmethod (i.e. instead of using a sidecar template) are affected. The return value of the#callmethod is not sanitized and can include user-defined content. In addition, the return value of the#output_postamblemethodis not sanitized, which can also lead to cross-site scripting issues. Versions 3.9.0 and 2.83.0 have been released and fully mitigate both the#calland the#output_postamblevulnerabilities. As a workaround, sanitize the return value of#call. - Database specific
