"It was discovered that there was a discovered a path traversal flaw in
ruby-sprockets, a Rack-based asset packaging system. A remote attacker
could take advantage of this flaw to read arbitrary files outside an
application's root directory via 'file://' requests.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this issue has been fixed in ruby-sprockets
version 2.12.3-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby-sprockets packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
