community support

After some years of use, older versions of the Ruby on Rails framework are considered expired. It means that the Rails volunteer support team is no longer going to provide fix-patches for critical security incidents.

When community support for a certain version of Rails ends, SmithySoft takes over the maintenance and continues to provide security protocol fixes. When the official Rails security list updates with the new advisory or when it is communicated directly to us, we will fix the defense weakness and release a new SmithySoft gems version.
