CVE-2013-6459 rubygem-will_paginate: XSS vulnerabilities
Last modified: 2018-02-21 07:57:24 EST
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities were found in will_paginate gem for Ruby, where certain input related to generated pagination links were not properly sanitised before being returned. This could be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site. The vulnerabilities are reported to be fixed in version 3.0.5.

This [1] is the only commit in 3.0.5 which seems to be relevant to this CVE. If that is true, than this CVE does not affect Ruby on Rails applications, while it might affects Sinatra or Padrino applications (but Padrino is not available in Fedora).
