 ## Rails 6.0.0.alpha (Unreleased) ##
 
+*   Add support for automatic nonce generation for Rails UJS
+
+    Because the UJS library creates a script tag to process responses it
+    normally requires the script-src attribute of the content security
+    policy to include 'unsafe-inline'.
+
+    To work around this we generate a per-request nonce value that is
+    embedded in a meta tag in a similar fashion to how CSRF protection
+    embeds its token in a meta tag. The UJS library can then read the
+    nonce value and set it on the dynamically generated script tag to
+    enable it to execute without needing 'unsafe-inline' enabled.
+
+    Nonce generation isn't 100% safe - if your script tag is including
+    user generated content in someway then it may be possible to exploit
+    an XSS vulnerability which can take advantage of the nonce. It is
+    however an improvement on a blanket permission for inline scripts.
+
+    It is also possible to use the nonce within your own script tags by
+    using `nonce: true` to set the nonce value on the tag, e.g
+
+        <%= javascript_tag nonce: true do %>
+          alert('Hello, World!');
+        <% end %>
+
+    Fixes #31689.
+
+    *Andrew White*
+
 *   Rails 6 requires Ruby 2.4.1 or newer.
