CVE-2014-0130: Directory Traversal Vulnerability With Certain Route Configurations

May 7, 2014 (updated August 8, 2019)

The implicit render functionality allows controllers to render a template, even if there is no explicit action with the corresponding name. This module does not perform adequate input sanitization which could allow an attacker to use a specially crafted request to retrieve arbitrary files from the RoR application server.
