similar to: Question on the XSS Security Patch

The rubyonrails-security announcement for CVE-2012-3465 "XSS Vulnerability in strip_tags" mentions that a work around for earlier versions should be attached, but there''s none, only patches for 3.0 series and up. Is the work around available? If so, where can I get hold of it? Thanks in advance, Peter -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message

Cross-Site scripting (XSS) attacks have been appearing lately, so I wrote up an article about one way to protect yourself. It''s pretty easy to use and, for those who care, I go into some of metaprogramming techniques I used to create it. Check it out at http://blog.explorationage.com/articles/2006/01/25/how-to-protect-your-rails-apps-against-cross-site-scripting-attacks Justin p.s. My

Synopsis ---------- Loofah::HTML::Document#text emits unencoded HTML entities prior to 0.4.6. This was originally by design, since the output of #text is intended to be used in a non-HTML context (such as generation of human-readable text documents). However, Loofah::XssFoliate''s default behavior and Loofah::Helpers#strip_tags both use #text to strip tags out of the output, meaning that

Haven''t been able to find a good enough answer on whether using sanitize() is enough to really protect me from XSS attacks I basically have a blog page that I want to allow people to display comments on but would like to allow html tags to be posted on the comments, these could html tags like the imageshack img tags, youtube player, photobucket img tags etc any other approaches or

I'd like to revisit and old post if I may, will/does Dovecot support the old qpopper "Bulletin" ability? Basically I need a simple way of posting bulletins to all domain users. Qpopper maintained a bulletin db for each user and sent them the next bulletin in sequence. Thanks in advance Kevin

Hello List, I''m trying to generate examples for some list-helpers I have coded which use in my projects. Basically, the Playlist class uses one anonymous module in has_many that acts as helper between acts_as_list and my desired API: class Playlist < ActiveRecord::Base # associations go here has_many :playlist_items, :order => :position, :dependent => :destroy has_many

Hello, I've failed latest PCI scan because of CVE-2009-0796. Centos 6.7. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this issue as having moderate security impact and bug as wontfix. Explanation: The vulnerability affects non default configuration of Apache HTTP web server, i.e cases, when access to Apache::Status and Apache2::Status resources is explicitly allowed via <Location

Thanks Philon, I did read the extra bullets, as indicated in my email below. But your "When the user quits and thus closes his mailbox/connection" is more clear than "after the client is already disconnected", since the latter is really anytime, rather than at the time they quit. I can guess that the bulletin about LMTP similarly means at the end of each time LMTP delivers

Hello, I would like to announce the semi-optimized oc_state_loop_filter_frag_rows It gains like 7% speedup. Unfortunately it has some issues: 1) wont compile on 64bit (I will fix it later hopefully) 2) is not yet fully optimized (instruction stalls) Here are the results. CPU: Athlon, speed 1466.91 MHz (estimated) Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (Cycles outside of halt state) with a unit mask
