GSD-2015-3226

Vulnerability from gsd - Updated: 2015-06-16 00:00

Details

When a `Hash` containing user-controlled data is encode as JSON (either through `Hash#to_json` or `ActiveSupport::JSON.encode`), Rails does not perform adequate escaping that matches the guarantee implied by the `escape_html_entities_in_json` option (which is enabled by default). If this resulting JSON string is subsequently inserted directly into an HTML page, the page will be vulnerable to XSS attacks. For example, the following code snippet is vulnerable to this attack: <%= javascript_tag "var data = #{user_supplied_data.to_json};" %> Similarly, the following is also vulnerable: <script> var data = <%= ActiveSupport::JSON.encode(user_supplied_data).html_safe %>; </script> All applications that renders JSON-encoded strings that contains user-controlled data in their views should either upgrade to one of the FIXED versions or use the suggested workaround immediately. Workarounds ----------- To work around this problem add an initializer with the following code: module ActiveSupport module JSON module Encoding private class EscapedString def to_s self end end end end end
