CVE-2006-3694
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Ruby before 1.8.5 allow remote attackers to bypass "safe level" checks via unspecified vectors involving (1) the alias function and (2) "directory operations".
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (5.85%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
