Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Kaminari, a Ruby pagination gem, is vulnerable in versions before 1.2.1. An attacker can inject script into pages that contain pagination links, which is a cross-site scripting flaw. The source does not say what user interaction or access is required. Upgrade to kaminari 1.2.1. Developers who cannot upgrade can override the PARAM_KEY_EXCEPT_LIST constant as a workaround.
