NVD Description

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

Active Model in Ruby on Rails 4.1.x before 4.1.14.1, 4.2.x before 4.2.5.1, and 5.x before 5.0.0.beta1.1 supports the use of instance-level writers for class accessors, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended validation steps via crafted parameters.
