Package        : rails
Version        : 2:4.1.8-1+deb8u6
CVE ID         : CVE-2020-5267
Debian Bug     : 954304


In ActionView before versions 6.0.2.2 and 5.2.4.2, there is a
possible XSS vulnerability in ActionView's JavaScript literal
escape helpers.
Views that use the `j` or `escape_javascript` methods may be
susceptible to XSS attacks.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
2:4.1.8-1+deb8u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.
