<product type="ebuild">ruby</product>
<announced>May 10, 2006</announced>
<revised>May 10, 2006: 01</revised>
<bug>130657</bug>
<access>remote</access>
<affected>
<package name="dev-lang/ruby" auto="yes" arch="*">
<unaffected range="ge">1.8.4-r1</unaffected>
<vulnerable range="lt">1.8.4-r1</vulnerable>

<background>
<p>
Ruby is an interpreted scripting language for quick and easy
object-oriented programming. It comes bundled with HTTP ("WEBrick") and
XMLRPC server objects.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>
Ruby uses blocking sockets for WEBrick and XMLRPC servers.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
An attacker could send large amounts of data to an affected server
to block the socket and thus deny other connections to the server.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All Ruby users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-lang/ruby-1.8.4-r1"</code>
</resolution>
