description

Affected Action Pack versions can lose strong-parameter protections when application code uses the return value of block-form ActionController::Parameters#each_key for mass assignment. A remote unauthenticated attacker may set attributes that the application intended to restrict, but only where the application follows that usage pattern.

mitigation

Upgrade Action Pack to 8.0.5.2 or 8.1.4.1. Until upgraded, do not pass the return value of each_key to mass-assignment methods; pass the permitted parameters object instead.

fixed in 8.1.4.1, 8.0.5.2
