No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4464/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4464/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-4464","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4464/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-4464","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gjcp-rx5c-g849"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"unknown","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ruby programming language","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass Ruby safe-level restrictions to modify untainted strings via specific API functions, potentially compromising application integrity.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"ruby","vendor":"ruby-lang"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Ruby 1.9.3 before patchlevel 286 and 2.0 before revision r37068 allows context-dependent attackers to bypass safe-level restrictions and modify untainted strings via the (1) exc_to_s or (2) name_err_to_s API function, which marks the string as tainted, a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-4466.
