Tagging a string as html safe may be a security risk.

      content_tag(:td, "'#{otu.name}'" + (otu.new_record? ? '<br>(New)' : '').html_safe)
Severity: Minor
Found in app/helpers/batch_load/batch_load_helper.rb by rubocop

This cop checks for the use of output safety calls like html_safe, raw, and safe_concat. These methods do not escape content. They simply return a SafeBuffer containing the content as is. Instead, use safe_join to join content and escape it and concat to concatenate content and escape it, ensuring its safety.

Example:

user_content = "hi"

# bad
"
#{user_content}
".html_safe
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "
hi
"

# good
content_tag(:p, user_content)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "
<b>hi</b>
"

# bad
out = ""
out << "
  • #{user_content}
    • "
out << "
  • #{user_content}
    • "
out.html_safe
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "
  • hi
    • 

  • hi
    • "

# good
out = []
out << content_tag(:li, user_content)
out << content_tag(:li, user_content)
safe_join(out)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer
#    "
  • <b>hi</b>
    • 

  • <b>hi</b>
    • "

# bad
out = "
    trusted content
    ".html_safe
out.safe_concat(user_content)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "
    trusted_content
    
hi"

# good
out = "
    trusted content
    ".html_safe
out.concat(user_content)
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer
#    "
    trusted_content
    <b>hi</b>"

# safe, though maybe not good style
out = "trusted content"
result = out.concat(user_content)
# => String "trusted contenthi"
# because when rendered in ERB the String will be escaped:
# <%= result %>
# => trusted content<b>hi</b>

# bad
(user_content + " " + content_tag(:span, user_content)).html_safe
# => ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer "hi <span><b>hi</b></span>"

    Use if cached_map.blank? instead of unless cached_map.present?.

        return {} unless cached_map.present?
    Severity: Minor
    Found in app/helpers/cached_maps_helper.rb by rubocop

    This cop checks for code that can be written with simpler conditionals using Object#blank? defined by Active Support.

    Interaction with Style/UnlessElse: The configuration of NotPresent will not produce an offense in the context of unless else if Style/UnlessElse is inabled. This is to prevent interference between the auto-correction of the two cops.

    Example: NilOrEmpty: true (default)

    # Converts usages of `nil? || empty?` to `blank?`

# bad
foo.nil? || foo.empty?
foo == nil || foo.empty?

# good
foo.blank?

    Example: NotPresent: true (default)

    # Converts usages of `!present?` to `blank?`

# bad
!foo.present?

# good
foo.blank?

    Example: UnlessPresent: true (default)

    # Converts usages of `unless present?` to `if blank?`

# bad
something unless foo.present?

# good
something if foo.blank?

# bad
unless foo.present?
  something
end

# good
if foo.blank?
  something
end

# good

    This cop checks for the use of output safety calls like html_safe, raw, and safe_concat. These methods do not escape content. They simply return a SafeBuffer containing the content as is. Instead, use safe_join to join content and escape it and concat to concatenate content and escape it, ensuring its safety.
