Announcements : Rails 1.2.6: Security and Maintenance Release

Ruby on Rails 1.2.6: Security and Maintenance Release has been released on November 24, 2007 by the rails core team to address a bug in the fix for session fixation attacks (CVE-2007-5380). The CVE Identifier for this new issue is CVE-2007-6077.

You should upgrade to this new release if you do not take specific session-fixation counter measures in your application. 1.2.6 also fixes some regressions when working with has_many associations on unsaved ActiveRecord objects.

As with other 1.2.x releases, this is intended as a drop in upgrade for users of earlier versions in the 1.2 series.

To upgrade, `gem install rails`, set RAILS_GEM_VERSION to ‘1.2.6’ in config/environment.rb, and `rake rails:update:configs`.

Welcome to Rails.. Rails... Rails !

In 1995, I started the popular Clipper...Clipper... Clipper website (no blogs then) which was very popular and linked by virtually every Clipper-related site. When I switched to Windows via Delphi in 1997, I started the Delphi... Delphi... Delphi site. In June 2007, I discovered Ruby on Rails and no prize for guessing what I am gonna name this blog. which I started on 2nd October 2007.
