Heaven detected that rails is not < 3.0.0, >= 5.0.0.1, ~> 3.2.22.3, ~> 3.2.23, ~> 3.3, ~> 4.2.7.1, ~> 4.2.8, ~> 4.3

Your Gemfile.lock on the master branch currently is 3.2.22.2.

Can you folks fix this up? 💞

This bumps the version of Rails to 3.2.22.4 in order to mitigate
CVE-2016-6316[1]. The CVE is a fix to ensure that double quotes are
correctly sanitised for HTML output and cannot be used as XSS vector.
