Ruby vulnerability allowing to bypass safe level 4 as a sandbox

Overview Ruby is a object-oriented scripting language that supports execution of untrusted code with two mechanisms: "object taint" and "safe level". Ruby contains a vulnerability that may allow an attacker to execute an arbitrary script by bypassing the "safe level" checks. Impact An attacker...
