SECURITY WARNING: No secret option provided to Rack::Session::Cookie.

[Praveen BK]

I am getting following warning while generating model, how to get rid of
this warning and what is cause for this warning. I am using rails 3.2.8

SECURITY WARNING: No secret option provided to Rack::Session::Cookie.
This poses a security threat. It is strongly recommended that you
provide a secret to prevent exploits that may be possible from
crafted
cookies. This will not be supported in future versions of Rack, and
future versions will even invalidate your existing user cookies.

Thank you.

Normally you'd have 

YourApplication::Application.config.secret_token = 'long random string'

in an initializer, which rails should then pass through to rack. You can use rake secret to generate such a token.

I just read about this yesterday. It's an issue with the very latest
update to the rack gem, as I understand it. The issue was patched in the
Rails master and should make it's way into the next point release of
Rails. According to the bug discussion this warning can be safely
ignore, so just wait for the next Rails release and the warning should
go away.

Rake is not Rack.
