I would like to integrate the uploadify plugin with a standard rails form. However I can''t figure out how to add a new field and have it get submitted with the file upload. I added a name field into the form, but the valued does not get submitted. <% dialog_file_description = ''Photos'' allowed_extensions = [:jpg, :jpeg, :gif, :png] max_size = 20.megabyte

I''m going to go out on a limb here and say the new CSRF protection in Rails is flawed. Why? Forget about caching if you care to use it. Consider the following: <% cache do %> <%= link_to_remote "Add To Favorites", :url => {:controller => "favorites", :action => "create", "movie_id" => 2} %> <% end %> # Output <a

Hallo, I want to test the csrf protection of my application but forgery protection is not working with jquery ajax request. I have used Unobtrusive Javascript with jquery I have removed the <%= csrf_meta_tag %> so that my application do not include authenticity token. In my view I have the following code $(function () { $(''#alert'').click(function () { $.ajax({

Hi all, I would like to use page caching on my homepage, but also want to enable people to sign in via a modal dialog sign in form. I could have a setup in which when a user lands on the cached homepage, an Ajax GET request pulls in the whole login form so that there is a fresh authenticity token. That said, besides the additional hit to the server, the CSRF token in the head area of the page

I am running a Rails 4 app in semi-production and I constantly get exceptions from crawler bots that use a HEAD HTTP method, which causes the CSRF protection to kick in. Shouldn''t HEAD requests normally be handled like GET requests? I am not sure if I''m just being stupid or that hit is a bug somewhere.

I''m setting up a Paypal IPN listener and need the create action to not use rails'' default CSRF protection. I''ve got that working fine & test it actually works with cucumber (where I''ve turned CSRF back on, since it''s full-stack testing) but would like my controller spec to mention the need for protect_from_forgery :except => [:create] (and fail

Hi all, My team and I are finding ourselves a little in the dark about the "CSRF Protection Bypass in Ruby on Rails" vulnerability that was announced yesterday - http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2011/2/8/csrf-protection-bypass-in-ruby-on-rails 1. Where is the complete Advisory? The Impact section is very unclear. Looking at the comment in the 2.3 patch mentions "Flash animations and

I''m using rails3. It does not seem to check the authenticity_token when doing a POST using Ajax. I traced this to: module ActionDispatch class Request < Rack::Request ..... def forgery_whitelisted? get? || xhr? || content_mime_type.nil? || ! content_mime_type.verify_request? end end so you don''t check if its a get? or a xhr? (ie ajax request). Is this correct? --

Hi, I just noticed that the auto_complete plugin does not work with the CSRF protection in Rails 2.0. I''ve patched the plugin, but I''m wondering if people would like to see the official plugin fixed. If so, speak up and I will write some tests and submit the patch.

Hello all, I''ve been trying to diagnose an issue with CSRF and Firefox specifically. I''ve got an ajax based form, using UJS (yes, I have csrf_meta_tag in my layout and I''ve tried adding the X-CSRF-Token header to the ajax beforeSend events without any luck)... The form just posts some data to an ajax method that creates, saves, and sets the session for a shopper as

Dear Rails community, As part of a programming languages/security research group at the University of Maryland, we are building some static analysis tools for Rails applications. These tools work by taking formally specified properties of interest, and then analyzing code to verify that those properties indeed hold. Using these tools, we found some security vulnerabilities in Rails, and we would

Does anyone have experience with using subdomains and rails? The example that I used to help me out was from the Advanced Rails Recipes book, but I can''t get it working as it should. I continually get authenticity token errors after logging in. I have had this error before, and for whatever reason after I added a<%= token_tag %> to the form it worked, but it doesn''t work
