After waiting for a long time
Ruby on Rails developers have been provided with the updates with certain
critical fixes from the platform’s side. Official statement mentioned that the
fixes which were made in the latest update are two of the most critical fixes
which were required by the developers.
The fixes are believed to wall
attackers from bypassing authentication and executing arbitrary code in the
Rails application. Ruby on Rails developers now can try to make the arbitrary
code execution highly difficult for the attackers and with the critical fixes
each and every Ruby on Rails developer can feel secure while developing his /
her project.
Without providing security for
the project developed, the Ruby on Rails programmer cannot promise the client
that the project is complete. This is a very important aspect in developing a
project as even the smallest of bugs might cause the overall project to fail.
As there were various weak points present the Ruby on Rails programmers had to
keep a watch for attackers who could bypass authentication systems, inject
arbitrary SQL, inject and execute arbitrary code, or perform a DoS attack on a
Rails application.
If one of these attacks is done
to a Ruby on Rails project then there is a possibility that the entire database
which relies on the front end may get corrupt and inaccessible to the clients. Thus
these fixes which were done have been much appreciated by companies such as
DCKAP Inc, which develop intricate projects using the Ruby on Rails technology.
