WalkthroughA new controller named Changes
Poem
Impact AnalysisNew user search by email functionality added📢 Medium 🔄 Impacts behavior A new controller action allows users (or system components) to retrieve a list of users filtered by email address via the index action. This enables searching for users by email, which was not previously available. Test the index action with various email parameters, including valid, invalid, and edge cases (e.g., missing or malformed emails). Verify that the correct users are returned and that no unauthorized data is exposed. 🔍 Related Files

2-4:Consider adding authorization and paginationThe current implementation could benefit from:
- Authorization: Ensure users can only access permitted data
- Pagination: Handle large result sets efficiently
- Input validation: Validate the email parameter
Example implementation with these improvements:
defindexauthorize:user,:index?# Using Pundit or similar@users=User.where(email:params[:email]).page(params[:page]).per(25)respond_todo |format|format.htmlformat.json{renderjson:@users}endrescueStandardError=>eredirect_toroot_path,alert:"An error occurred:#{e.message}"endWould you like me to help implement any of these improvements?

Critical: Fix SQL injection vulnerability
The current implementation is vulnerable to SQL injection attacks. User input fromparams[:email] is directly interpolated into the SQL query string, allowing malicious users to execute arbitrary SQL commands.
Apply this fix to use parameterized queries:
- @users = User.where("email = '#{params[:email]}'")+ @users = User.where(email: params[:email])
Alternatively, if you need to use SQL fragments:
@users=User.where("email = ?",params[:email])

In app/controllers/users_controllers.rb at line 3, the current code directlyinterpolates user input into the SQL query, causing a SQL injectionvulnerability. To fix this, replace the string interpolation with aparameterized query by using a placeholder and passing params[:email] as aseparate argument, like User.where("email = ?", params[:email]). This changeensures safe query execution by properly escaping user input.| class UsersController < ApplicationController | ||

Fix file naming convention
The filenameusers_controllers.rb should beusers_controller.rb (singular "controller"). This follows Rails naming conventions and ensures proper autoloading.
Run this script to check for any references to this file that might need updating:
🏁 Script executed:
#!/bin/bash# Description: Check for references to the incorrectly named file# Search for any references to the incorrect filenamerg -i"users_controllers" --type ruby# Check if the correct filename already existsfd -t f"users_controller.rb"

#!/bin/bash# List all Ruby files under app/controllers to verify the actual filenamesfd -e rb app/controllers# Search for files defining UsersController to pinpoint where the class is declaredrg -l"class UsersController" --type ruby
Length of output: 473
Fix file naming convention and improve controller
The controller file is misnamed and missing essential safeguards:
Rename
app/controllers/users_controllers.rb→app/controllers/users_controller.rb
No references to the old filename were found, but Rails autoloading will break until the file is renamed.
Add authorization
- e.g.
classUsersController <ApplicationControllerbefore_action:authenticate_user!# Devise# or# after_action :verify_authorized, except: :index # Pundit
- Inside
index, call your authorization library (e.g.authorize User).
- e.g.
Add pagination
- Prevent unbounded result sets:
defindex@users=User.where(email:params[:email]).page(params[:page]).per(params[:per_page] ||25)end
- Requires a pagination gem like Kaminari or WillPaginate.

In app/controllers/users_controllers.rb lines 1 to 5, rename the file tousers_controller.rb to follow Rails naming conventions and avoid autoloadingissues. Add an authorization callback such as before_action :authenticate_user!or after_action :verify_authorized to secure the controller. Modify the indexaction to use parameterized queries (e.g., User.where(email: params[:email])) toprevent SQL injection, and add pagination using a gem like Kaminari by chaining.page(params[:page]).per(params[:per_page] || 25) to limit result sets.
