Bumps activesupport from 3.2.8 to 6.1.4. This update includes security fixes.

Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The Ruby Advisory Database.

Possible Denial of Service attack in Active Support Specially crafted XML documents can cause applications to raise a SystemStackError and potentially cause a denial of service attack. This only impacts applications using REXML or JDOM as their XML processor. Other XML processors that Rails supports are not impacted.

All users running an affected release should either upgrade or use one of the work arounds immediately.

Workarounds

Use an XML parser that is not impacted by this problem, such as Nokogiri or LibXML. You can change the processor like this:

ActiveSupport::XmlMini.backend = 'Nokogiri'

If you cannot change XML parsers, then adjust RUBY_THREAD_MACHINE_STACK_SIZE.

Patched versions: >= 4.2.2; ~> 4.1.11; ~> 3.2.22 Unaffected versions: none

Sourced from The GitHub Security Advisory Database.

Moderate severity vulnerability that affects activesupport The ActiveSupport::XmlMini_JDOM backend in lib/active_support/xml_mini/jdom.rb in the Active Support component in Ruby on Rails 3.0.x and 3.1.x before 3.1.12 and 3.2.x before 3.2.13, when JRuby is used, does not properly restrict the capabilities of the XML parser, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via vectors involving (1) an external DTD or (2) an external entity declaration in conjunction with an entity reference.

Affected versions: >= 3.2.0, < 3.2.13

Sourced from The Ruby Advisory Database.

XML Parsing Vulnerability affecting JRuby users The ActiveSupport XML parsing functionality supports multiple pluggable backends. One backend supported for JRuby users is ActiveSupport::XmlMini_JDOM which makes use of the javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder class. In some JVM configurations the default settings of that class can allow an attacker to construct XML which, when parsed, will contain the contents of arbitrary URLs including files from the application server. They may also allow for various denial of service attacks. Action Pack

Patched versions: ~> 3.1.12; >= 3.2.13 Unaffected versions: ~> 2.3.0

Sourced from The Ruby Advisory Database.

Potentially unintended unmarshalling of user-provided objects in MemCacheStore and RedisCacheStore There is potentially unexpected behaviour in the MemCacheStore and RedisCacheStore where, when untrusted user input is written to the cache store using the raw: true parameter, re-reading the result from the cache can evaluate the user input as a Marshalled object instead of plain text. Vulnerable code looks like:
data = cache.fetch("demo", raw: true) { untrusted_string }
Versions Affected: rails < 5.2.5, rails < 6.0.4 Not affected: Applications not using MemCacheStore or RedisCacheStore. Applications that do not use the raw option when storing untrusted user input. Fixed Versions: rails >= 5.2.4.3, rails >= 6.0.3.1

Impact

Unmarshalling of untrusted user input can have impact up to and including RCE. At a minimum, this vulnerability allows an attacker to inject untrusted Ruby objects into a web application.

In addition to upgrading to the latest versions of Rails, developers should ensure that whenever they are calling Rails.cache.fetch they are using consistent values of the raw parameter for both
