Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-024 - Ruby before 1.8.7-p357 computes hash values without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted input to an application that maintains a hash table. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Problem Description:
A vulnerability has been found and corrected in ruby:
Ruby (aka CRuby) before 1.8.7-p357 computes hash values without
restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably,
which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service
(CPU consumption) via crafted input to an application that maintains
a hash table (CVE-2011-4815).
The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
