NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rails package and not the rails package as distributed by Debian.

actionpack/lib/action_view/template/resolver.rb in Ruby on Rails 3.0.x before 3.0.4, when a case-insensitive filesystem is used, does not properly implement filters associated with the list of available templates, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via an action name that uses an unintended case for alphabetic characters.
