How to fix?

Upgrade activerecord to version 6.0.6.1, 6.1.7.1, 7.0.4.1 or higher.

Overview

activerecord is a library for databases on Rails.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to SQL Injection due to improper sanitization of comments passed via annotate, optimzer_hints methods, or via the QueryLogs interface, which adds annotations automatically. Exploiting this behavior allows a malicious user to inject SQL outside of the comment.

Workaround

Avoid passing user input to annotate and avoid using QueryLogs configuration, which can include user input.
