Detail

Ruby on Rails 2.1.x, 2.2.x, and 2.3.x before 2.3.11, and 3.x before 3.0.4, does not properly validate HTTP requests that contain an X-Requested-With header, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks via forged (1) AJAX or (2) API requests that leverage "combinations of browser plugins and HTTP redirects," a related issue to CVE-2011-0696.

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id	Description
70927	Ruby on Rails Ajax/API Request CSRF Protection Bypass Ruby on Rails contains a flaw that allows a remote Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF / XSRF) attack. The flaw exists because the application does not require multiple steps or explicit confirmation for AJAX or API HTTP requests that contain a X-Requested-With header. This makes it easier for an attacker to use a crafted URL (e.g., a crafted GET request inside an "img" tag) to trick the victim into clicking on the image to take advantage of the trust relationship between the authenticated victim and the application. Such an attack could trick the victim into executing arbitrary commands in the context of their session with the application, without further prompting or verification.

Ruby on Rails Ajax/API Request CSRF Protection Bypass

Ruby on Rails contains a flaw that allows a remote Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF / XSRF) attack. The flaw exists because the application does not require multiple steps or explicit confirmation for AJAX or API HTTP requests that contain a X-Requested-With header. This makes it easier for an attacker to use a crafted URL (e.g., a crafted GET request inside an "img" tag) to trick the victim into clicking on the image to take advantage of the trust relationship between the authenticated victim and the application. Such an attack could trick the victim into executing arbitrary commands in the context of their session with the application, without further prompting or verification.
