Rails::Deprecated::Sanitizer

In Rails 4.2 HTML sanitization has been rewritten using a more secure library.

This gem includes the old behavior shipping with Rails 4.2 and before. It is strictly provided to ease migration. It will be supported until Rails 5.

To downgrade add gem 'rails-deprecated_sanitizer' to your Gemfile.

See the Rails 4.2 upgrade guide for more information.

You can read more about the new sanitization implementation here: rails-html-sanitizer.
