[Snyk] Fix for 1 vulnerabilities

[samawad]

Snyk has created this PR to fix 1 vulnerabilities in the rubygems dependencies of this project.

Snyk changed the following file(s):

• Gemfile
• Gemfile.lock

---

This upgrade spans multiple major versions of Ruby on Rails (3, 4, and 5) and involves a complete architectural overhaul. It is not a direct upgrade and requires a multi-step migration process with significant code refactoring at each stage.

Highlights:

• Rails 3: Introduces Bundler for gem management and a complete rewrite of the routing system. [1, 7]
• Rails 4: Replaces attr_accessible with Strong Parameters, a major security-related change requiring updates to all controllers handling data. [4, 12]
• Rails 5: Requires Ruby 2.2.2+ and changes controller parameter handling, as ActionController::Parameters no longer behaves like a hash. [3, 9]

Source: Ruby on Rails Upgrade Guides. [8, 9]
Recommendation: Do not merge directly. A staged upgrade (e.g., 2.3 → 3.2 → 4.2 → 5.0) is required to address breaking changes incrementally. Each step will involve significant dependency updates and code remediation.
