Hi, Can someone assign a CVE for the XSS issue described in https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/38df020c95beca7e12f0188cb7e18f3c37789e20/actionpack/CHANGELOG
Here is the changelog text:
*Rails 3.0.6 (April 5, 2011)
* Fixed XSS vulnerability in `auto_link`. `auto_link` no longer marks
input as html safe. Please make sure that calls to auto_link() are
wrapped in a sanitize(), or a raw() depending on the type of input passed
to auto_link().
For example:
<%= sanitize(auto_link(some_user_input)) %>
Thanks to Torben Schulz for reporting this. The fix can be found here:
61ee3449674c591747db95f9b3472c5c3bd9e84d
Use CVE-2011-1497
Thanks.
