More RoR fallout

Filed under: Security, Technology — jm @ 12:02

Rails 1.1.6, backports, and full disclosure. Seems like they only cought one part of the problem in 1.1.5, so they updated again.

Some of the people leaving comments seem to be pissed off at the no-disclosure thing that the RoR core team did yesterday. Also, the update seems to break compatibility with “3rd party engines” (unfortunately, I don’t know that means in Rails-speak), which reminds me of the memory-leak that the PHP developers had to fix with an incompatible change. I hope that this doesn’t have the same impact on Rails-developers as PHP 4.4 had on PHP-developers.
