Security readout for executives and security teams

A vulnerable Ruby dependency could let an attacker turn specially crafted input into operating-system command execution, but only in applications that use the Cocaine gem in the affected way. The source bundle does not show active exploitation or a CVSS score. Exposure is limited to Ruby applications that include Cocaine gem 0.4.0 through 0.5.2 and pass attacker-influenced data into vulnerable interpolation paths. Treat as a high-priority legacy dependency issue where the gem is present in exposed Ruby services. The business risk is highest where user-controlled data can influence command execution paths. Mitigation focus: Inventory Ruby dependency manifests for Cocaine gem versions 0.4.0 through 0.5.2.; Check thoughtbot Cocaine release guidance for the corrected version or migration path.; Remove or upgrade affected dependency instances in maintained applications..
