[SECURITY] [DLA 1221-1] ruby1.9.1 security update



Package        : ruby1.9.1
Version        : 1.9.3.194-8.1+deb7u7
CVE ID         : CVE-2017-17405 CVE-2017-17790

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.

CVE-2017-17790

    A command injection vulnerability in lib/resolv.rb's lazy_initialze
    might allow a command injection attack. However untrusted input to
    this function is rather unlikely.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1.9.3.194-8.1+deb7u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby1.9.1 packages.
