Vulnerability Insight: Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the interpreter for the Ruby language. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2017-17405 A command injection vulnerability in Net::FTP might allow a malicious FTP server the execution of arbitrary commands.
