DESCRIPTION

SQL injection vulnerability in activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb in the PostgreSQL adapter for Active Record in Ruby on Rails 2.x and 3.x before 3.2.19 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands by leveraging improper bitstring quoting. It was discovered that Active Record did not properly quote values of the bitstring type attributes when using the PostgreSQL database adapter. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to conduct an SQL injection attack against applications using Active Record.
