kaminari 1.1.1
Cross-Site Scripting in Kaminari via original_script_name
parameter
>= 1.2.1
Impact
There was a vulnerability in versions of Kaminari that would allow an attacker to inject arbitrary code into pages with pagination links.
For example, an attacker could craft pagination links that link to other domain or host: https://example.com/posts?page=4&original_script_name=https://another-host.example.com
In addition, an attacker could also craft pagination links that include JavaScript code that runs when a user clicks the link: https://example.com/posts?page=4&original_script_name=javascript:alert(42)%3b//
Releases
The 1.2.1 gem including the patch has already been released. All past released versions are affected by this vulnerability.

constant.

PARAM_KEY_EXCEPT_LIST = [:authenticity_token, :commit, :utf8, :_method, :script_name, :original_script_name].freeze
