Rails has a special track record for convenient magic implicated in security vulnerabilities.
Another commenter gave a good example theory implicating a convenient-but-questionable out of the box behavior of Rails: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28537562 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28537562
The good news is Rails has been slowly moving away from the magic over the years - it used to be a lot worse.
