    Debian Bug     : 1132035 1143080

    Multiple security issues were discovered in the Rails web framework
    which could result in cross-site scripting, denial of service, path
    traversal, or the execution of arbitrary code.

    CVE-2026-33168

        In Action View, tag helpers skipped escaping when an HTML attribute
        name was blank, which could allow cross-site scripting. Blank
        attribute names are now dropped.

    CVE-2026-33169

        In Active Support, number_to_delimited took quadratic time on long
        digit strings, which could be used for a denial of service.

    CVE-2026-33170

        In Active Support, formatting an unsafe SafeBuffer with % marked
        the result as html_safe, which could allow cross-site scripting.
        The result now stays unsafe.

    CVE-2026-33173

        In Active Storage, a direct upload could set the analyzed and
        identified metadata keys and skip content-type detection. Those
        keys are now dropped from client-supplied metadata.

    CVE-2026-33176

        In Action View, number helpers expanded scientific notation through
        BigDecimal, so input such as 1E1000 could use excessive CPU and
        memory, leading to a denial of service.

    CVE-2026-33195

        In Active Storage, the disk service accepted keys containing ../,
        which allowed path traversal outside the storage root. Such keys now
        raise InvalidKeyError.

    CVE-2026-33202

        In Active Storage, the disk service's delete_prefixed passed the
        prefix to Dir.glob without escaping, so glob metacharacters could
        delete unintended files. Glob metacharacters are now escaped.

    CVE-2026-66066

        In Active Storage, applications that set the variant processor to
        :vips left libvips's untrusted, unfuzzed loaders enabled, which could
        allow crafted images to execute arbitrary code. The vips processor
        now blocks untrusted loaders. The default MiniMagick processor is
        not affected.

    For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version
    2:6.1.7.10+dfsg-1~deb12u3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.

    its security tracker page at:
