class ActionDispatch::HostAuthorization

Parent:
Object

This middleware guards from DNS rebinding attacks by explicitly permitting the hosts a request can be sent to.

When a request comes to an unauthorized host, the response_app application will be executed and rendered. If no response_app is given, a default one will run, which responds with +403 Forbidden+.

Constants

DEFAULT_RESPONSE_APP
