Subject: [WEB SECURITY] Ruby On Rails 1.1.5 Released to Address Critical
Vulnerability

>From their blog

"We're still hard at work on Rails 1.2, which features all the new dandy
REST stuff and more, but a serious security concern has come to our
attention that needed to be addressed sooner than the release of 1.2
would allow. So here's Rails 1.1.5!

This is a MANDATORY upgrade for anyone not running on a very recent edge
(which isn't affected by this). 
If you have a public Rails site, you MUST upgrade to Rails 1.1.5. The
security issue is severe and you do not want to be caught unpatched.

The issue is in fact of such a criticality that we're not going to dig
into the specifics. No need to arm would-be assalients."
