<affected>
<package name="dev-ruby/activerecord" auto="yes" arch="*">

</package>
</affected>
<background>
<p>Active Record is a Ruby gem that allows database entries to be
manipulated as objects.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>An Active Record method parameter can mistakenly be used as a scope.</p>
</description>
<impact type="low">
<p>A remote attacker could use specially crafted input to execute arbitrary
SQL statements.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>The vulnerability may be mitigated by converting the input to an
expected value. This is accomplished by changing instances of
‘Post.find_by_id(params[:id])’ in code using Active Record to
‘Post.find_by_id(params[:id].to_s)’
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All Active Record users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-ruby/activerecord-2.3.14-r1"
</code>
</resolution>
