module for this language.  Specially crafted requests could cause an
infinite loop and thus cause the program to eat up cpu cycles.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version ruby_1.6.7-3woody4.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.8-12 of ruby1.6 and in version 1.8.1+1.8.2pre2-4 of
ruby1.8.

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby packages.";
