Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: ruby-1.8.3-1
Message-Id: <cygwin.20051007090505.GB16157@calimero.vinschen.de>

I have updated the version of ruby on cygwin.com to 1.8.3-1.

This is an upstream security and bugfix release.

Ruby versions up to 1.8.2 have a vulnerability that allows an arbitrary
code to run bypassing the safe level check.

As for the bugfixes, the official release message doesn't contain a
description of them, sorry.


To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.
