Cross-site Scripting Vulnerability in Action Pack
Details
There is a possible XSS vulnerability in Rails / Action Pack. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2022-22577.
Versions Affected: >= 5.2.0 Not affected: < 5.2.0 Fixed Versions: 7.0.2.4, 6.1.5.1, 6.0.4.8, 5.2.7.1
## Impact
CSP headers were only sent along with responses that Rails considered as "HTML" responses. This left API requests without CSP headers, which could possibly expose users to XSS attacks.
## Releases
The FIXED releases are available at the normal locations.
## Workarounds
Set a CSP for your API responses manually.
