[Security] Bump actionpack from 5.2.3 to 6.1.2

[dependabot-preview]

Bumps actionpack from 5.2.3 to 6.1.2. This update includes security fixes.

Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The Ruby Advisory Database.

Ability to forge per-form CSRF tokens given a global CSRF token It is possible to possible to, given a global CSRF token such as the one present in the authenticity_token meta tag, forge a per-form CSRF token for any action for that session.

Versions Affected: rails < 5.2.5, rails < 6.0.4 Not affected: Applications without existing HTML injection vulnerabilities. Fixed Versions: rails >= 5.2.4.3, rails >= 6.0.3.1

Impact

Given the ability to extract the global CSRF token, an attacker would be able to construct a per-form CSRF token for that session.

Workarounds

This is a low-severity security issue. As such, no workaround is necessarily until such time as the application can be upgraded.

Patched versions: ~> 5.2.4.3; >= 6.0.3.1 Unaffected versions: none

Sourced from The Ruby Advisory Database.

Possible Strong Parameters Bypass in ActionPack There is a strong parameters bypass vector in ActionPack.

Versions Affected: rails <= 6.0.3 Not affected: rails < 4.0.0 Fixed Versions: rails >= 5.2.4.3, rails >= 6.0.3.1

Impact

In some cases user supplied information can be inadvertently leaked from Strong Parameters. Specifically the return value of each, or each_value, or each_pair will return the underlying "untrusted" hash of data that was read from the parameters. Applications that use this return value may be inadvertently use untrusted user input.

Impacted code will look something like this:

def update
  # Attacker has included the parameter: `{ is_admin: true }`
  User.update(clean_up_params)
</tr></table>

Patched versions: ~> 5.2.4.3; >= 6.0.3.1 Unaffected versions: < 4.0.0

Release notes

Sourced from actionpack's releases.

6.1.2

Active Support

• ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore now accepts an explicit nil for its addresses argument.

  config.cache_store = :mem_cache_store, nil
  is now equivalent to
  config.cache_store = :mem_cache_store
  and is also equivalent to
  config.cache_store = :mem_cache_store, ENV["MEMCACHE_SERVERS"] || "localhost:11211"
  which is the fallback behavior of Dalli

  This helps those migrating from :dalli_store, where an explicit nil was permitted.

  Michael Overmeyer

Active Model

• No changes.

Active Record

• Fix timestamp type for sqlite3.

  Eileen M. Uchitelle

• Make destroy async transactional.

  An active record rollback could occur while enqueuing a job. In this case the job would enqueue even though the database deletion rolledback putting things in a funky state.

  Now the jobs are only enqueued until after the db transaction has been committed.

  Cory Gwin

• Fix malformed packet error in MySQL statement for connection configuration.
