# Log-File-Injection - Ruby on Rails 3.05
# possibilities:
# - possible date back attacks (tried with request-log-analyzer: worked but teaser_check_warnings)
# - ip spoofing
# - terminal injection
# - binary log-injections
# - DOS if ip is used with an iptables-ban-script
#
# !! works only on intranet apps !!
#
# Fix:
# validate request.remote_ip until they fix it
