Topic

An update for rh-ror41-rubygem-actionview is now available for Red Hat Software Collections.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

Description

Ruby on Rails is a model-view-controller (MVC) framework for web application development. Action View implements the view component.

Red Hat would like to thank the Ruby on Rails project for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Andrew Carpenter (Critical Juncture) as the original reporter.
