CVE-2022-23633 (https://github.com/rails/rails/security/advisories/GHSA-wh98-p28r-vrc9):
https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2022/02/11/5

Action Pack is a framework for handling and responding to web requests. Under certain circumstances response bodies will not be closed. In the event a response is *not* notified of a `close`, `ActionDispatch::Executor` will not know to reset thread local state for the next request. This can lead to data being leaked to subsequent requests.This has been fixed in Rails 7.0.2.1, 6.1.4.5, 6.0.4.5, and 5.2.6.1. Upgrading is highly recommended, but to work around this problem a middleware described in GHSA-wh98-p28r-vrc9 can be used.

Patch: https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/f9a2ad03943d5c2ba54e1d45f155442b519c75da

Please bump.
