CVE-2011-0447 Rails 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. For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 2.1.0-7+lenny0.1. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 2.3.5-1.2+squeeze0.1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.3.11-0.1. We recommend that you upgrade your rails packages.
