The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201401-22 (Active Record: SQL injection)

An Active Record method parameter can mistakenly be used as a scope.

Impact :

A remote attacker could use specially crafted input to execute arbitrary       SQL statements.

Workaround :

The vulnerability may be mitigated by converting the input to an       expected value. This is accomplished by changing instances of       ‘Post.find_by_id(params[:id])’ in code using Active Record to       ‘Post.find_by_id(params[:id].to_s)’
