Rails is a web-application framework. There is a possible XSS vulnerability
when using the translation helpers in Action Controller. Applications using
translation methods like translate, or t on a controller, with a key ending
in “_html”, a :default key which contains untrusted user input, and the
resulting string is used in a view, may be susceptible to an XSS
vulnerability. The vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.3.1 and 7.0.8.1.
