Title: RHSA-2008:0561 -- ruby security update (Moderate)
Description: Updated ruby packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. Ruby is an interpreted scripting language for quick and easy object-oriented programming. Multiple integer overflows leading to a heap overflow were discovered in the array- and string-handling code used by Ruby. An attacker could use these flaws to crash a Ruby application or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the Ruby application using untrusted inputs in array or string operations. (CVE-2008-2376, CVE-2008-2662, CVE-2008-2663, CVE-2008-2725, CVE-2008-2726)
