rails - security update

Description

A potential Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was found in rails, a ruby based MVC framework. Views that allow the user to control the default (not found) value of the `t` and `translate` helpers could be susceptible to XSS attacks. When an HTML-unsafe string is passed as the default for a missing translation key named html or ending in \_html, the default string is incorrectly marked as HTML-safe and not escaped. For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 2:4.2.7.1-1+deb9u4. We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages. For the detailed security status of rails please refer to its security tracker page at: <https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/rails> Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: <https://wiki.debian.org/LTS>
