I never said this is a security vulnerability in Rails.

I said it is a bug (and a serious one).

A bug, as you may be aware, is a mistake, fault, failure, problem or other unintended or surprising behavior in software.

See updates to my post for some additional clarification. I hope that helps. Thanks for reading!
