+  <title>Ruby: Denial of Service vulnerability</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    The Ruby cgi.rb CGI library is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    Ruby is a dynamic, open source programming language with a focus on
+    simplicity and productivity.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    The read_multipart function of the CGI library shipped with Ruby
+    (cgi.rb) does not properly check boundaries in MIME multipart content.
+    This is a different issue than GLSA 200611-12.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    The vulnerability can be exploited by sending the cgi.rb library a
+    crafted HTTP request with multipart MIME encoding that contains a
+    malformed MIME boundary specifier. Successful exploitation of the
+    vulnerability causes the library to go into an infinite loop.
+    </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 "&gt;=dev-lang/ruby-1.8.5_p2"</code>
