CVE:
 - CVE-2013-2119

   core:
     - rubygem-passenger-3.0.21-2.mga3
description: |
  Phusion Passenger’s code did not always create temporary files and directories
  in a secure manner. Temporary files and directories were sometimes created
  with a predictable filename. A local attacker can pre-create temporary files,
  resulting in a denial of service. In addition, this vulnerability allows a
  local attacker to run arbitrary code as another user, by hijacking temporary
  files (CVE-2013-2119).

  The rubygem-passenger package has been upgraded to version 3.0.21, which fixes
  this issue, as well as many others although at the moment has further issues 
  which will be fixed with another update (mga#10728).
