NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rubygem-actionpack package and not the rubygem-actionpack package as distributed by RHEL.
Rails is a web-application framework. Starting in version 7.1.0, there is a possible ReDoS vulnerability in the Accept header parsing routines of Action Dispatch. This vulnerability is patched in 7.1.3.1. Ruby 3.2 has mitigations for this problem, so Rails applications using Ruby 3.2 or newer are unaffected.
