activerecord vulnerable to SQL Injection
Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in the `quote_table_name` method in the ActiveRecord adapters in `activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/` in Ruby on Rails before 2.3.13, 3.0.x before 3.0.10, and 3.1.x before 3.1.0.rc5 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via a crafted column name.

Improper Access Control
The Rails gem does not properly consider differences in parameter handling between the Active Record component and the JSON implementation, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended database-query restrictions and perform NULL checks or trigger missing `WHERE` clauses via a crafted request.

activerecord vulnerable to SQL Injection
The Active Record component in Ruby on Rails efore 2.3.15, 3.0.x before 3.0.14, 3.1.x before 3.1.6, and 3.2.x before 3.2.6 does not properly implement the passing of request data to a where method in an ActiveRecord class, which allows remote attackers to conduct certain SQL injection attacks via nested query parameters that leverage improper handling of nested hashes, a related issue to CVE-2012-2661.

Active Record component in Ruby on Rails has a data-type injection vulnerability
The Active Record component in Ruby on Rails 2.3.x, 3.0.x, 3.1.x, and 3.2.x does not ensure that the declared data type of a database column is used during comparisons of input values to stored values in that column, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct data-type injection attacks against Ruby on Rails applications via a crafted value, as demonstrated by unintended interaction between the "typed XML" feature and a MySQL database.

Moderate severity vulnerability that affects activerecord
Withdrawn, accidental duplicate publish.

activerecord/lib/active_record/nested_attributes.rb in Active Record in Ruby on Rails 3.1.x and 3.2.x before 3.2.22.1, 4.0.x and 4.1.x before 4.1.14.1, 4.2.x before 4.2.5.1, and 5.x before 5.0.0.beta1.1 does not properly implement a certain destroy option, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended change restrictions by leveraging use of the nested attributes feature.

Improper Input Validation
Ruby on Rails 2.3.9 and 3.0.0 does not properly handle nested attributes, which allows remote attackers to modify arbitrary records by changing the names of parameters for form inputs.

Active Record RCE bug with Serialized Columns
When serialized columns that use YAML (the default) are deserialized, Rails uses YAML.unsafe_load to convert the YAML data in to Ruby objects. If an attacker can manipulate data in the database (via means like SQL injection), then it may be possible for the attacker to escalate to an RCE.

There are no feasible workarounds for this issue, but other coders (such as JSON) are not impacted.
