Snyk changed the following file(s):

  • Gemfile
  • Gemfile.lock

Merge Risk: High

This is a major upgrade across three full versions of Rails (2.x → 5.x), representing a complete architectural overhaul. It is not a direct upgrade but a series of complex migrations that will require significant code and dependency changes. The upgrade from Rails 2.3 to 3.0 alone introduces Bundler, a new router, and major structural changes. [1, 8] Subsequent upgrades to 4.0 and 5.0 introduce further breaking changes like Strong Parameters and new framework defaults. [3, 5, 12]

Highlights:

  • Ruby Version: Rails 5.0 requires Ruby 2.2.2 or newer, a significant jump from what was used with Rails 2.3. [2, 4]
  • Architectural Changes: The entire framework structure, dependency management (Bundler), routing, and mass-assignment security (attr_accessible to Strong Parameters) have been completely replaced. [1, 5, 9]

Source: Official Rails Guides
Recommendation: Do not attempt a direct upgrade. Follow the official incremental upgrade path: 2.3 → 3.0 → 3.1 → 3.2 → 4.0 → 4.1 → 4.2 → 5.0. [1, 3, 11, 12] Each step will have its own set of deprecations and breaking changes to address.

Additional upgrades: thin 1.2.7 → 1.2.8 (low), contains minor bug fixes and internal adjustments. [15]
