CVE-2011-0447 Open this link in a new tabOverview
actionpack is a web app builder and tester on Rails.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks.
Details
HTTP requests are not properly validated, and will allow requests containing an X-Requested-With header to be manipulated by an attacker. By spoofing AJAX requests and API requests that leverage a combination of browser plugins and HTTP redirects, an attacker may bypass the built in CSRF protection and successfully attack an application.
