"Ruby is an extensible, interpreted, object-oriented, scripting
language. It has features to process text files and to do system
management tasks.

A flaw was found in the way large amounts of memory were allocated on
64-bit systems when using the BigDecimal class. A context-dependent
attacker could use this flaw to cause memory corruption, causing a
Ruby application that uses the BigDecimal class to crash or, possibly,
execute arbitrary code. This issue did not affect 32-bit systems.
(CVE-2011-0188)

It was found that WEBrick (the Ruby HTTP server toolkit) did not
filter terminal escape sequences from its log files. A remote attacker
could use specially crafted HTTP requests to inject terminal escape
sequences into the WEBrick log files. If a victim viewed the log files
with a terminal emulator, it could result in control characters being
executed with the privileges of that user. (CVE-2009-4492)

A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the way WEBrick
displayed error pages. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
perform a cross-site scripting attack against victims by tricking them
into visiting a specially crafted URL. (CVE-2010-0541)

A flaw was found in the method for translating an exception message
into a string in the Exception class. A remote attacker could use this
flaw to bypass safe level 4 restrictions, allowing untrusted (tainted)
code to modify arbitrary, trusted (untainted) strings, which safe
level 4 restrictions would otherwise prevent. (CVE-2011-1005)

All Ruby users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
backported patches to resolve these issues."
