NVD Description

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

actionpack/lib/action_view/lookup_context.rb in Action View in Ruby on Rails 3.x before 3.2.16 and 4.x before 4.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a header containing an invalid MIME type that leads to excessive caching.
