Descriptions

A vulnerability in ActiveRecord <6.0.6.1, v6.1.7.1 and v7.0.4.1 related to the sanitization of comments. If malicious user input is passed to either the `annotate` query method, the `optimizer_hints` query method, or through the QueryLogs interface which automatically adds annotations, it may be sent to the database withinsufficient sanitization and be able to inject SQL outside of the comment.

A flaw was found in RubyGem's activerecord gem, which is vulnerable to SQL injection. This flaw allows a remote attacker to send specially-crafted SQL statements to the comments, allowing the attacker to view, add, modify, or delete information in the back-end database.
