This addresses CVE-2019-16782
There has been a vulnerability in the wild[1] around session hijacks in Rack and
related frameworks for a while now, but this has been fixed in Rack and Rails for a
while now. There's a fix for the upstream version of ActiverecordSessionStore
since late 2019[2], but this hasn't been merged yet.
We weren't aware of this issue until recently, as it's only just been added to the
Ruby Advisory DB[3]
This uses a fork of the upstream gem, as suggested in the original PR[4] to fix the
immediate issue.
