Brakeman 2.3.1 Released

Two minor bugs were fixed in this release. Please see the 2.3.0 release post if you are upgrading from an earlier version.

(changes)

Changes since 2.3.0:

  • Fix check for CVE-2013-4491 (i18n XSS) to detect workaround
  • Fix link for CVE-2013-6415 (number_to_currency)

i18n XSS Workaround

Brakeman 2.3.0 included a check for the official i18n XSS workaround, but it was commented out during testing and unfortunately left that way.

The link provided for CVE-2013-6415 in Brakeman 2.3.0 was copy-pasted from an older check. This has been fixed.
