Severity: serious

Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for ruby1.9. Note this was fixed in 1.9.1, and it isn't
really clear whether it affects 1.9. I can't find enough info to say
either way. Please check.
CVE-2009-4124[0]:
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the rb_str_justify function in string.c
| in Ruby 1.9.1 before 1.9.1-p376 allows context-dependent attackers to
| execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors involving (1)
| String#ljust, (2) String#center, or (3) String#rjust. NOTE: some of
| these details are obtained from third party information.
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE id in your changelog entry.
