So I went through my heroku closet and cleaned everything up (pulling the plug on unneeded apps and making sure needed apps were up to date).

My question: do these security issues affect Sinatra apps?



These issues affect all apps which deserialize arbitrary user-specified YAML. I suspect Sinatra doesn't provide any attack surface by default here, but Sinatra apps tend to have a lot of bolted-on functionality, so it's worth doing an audit of any Sinatra apps you run to make sure you haven't introduced any exploitable surfaces.
