Package        : ruby-rack-cors
CVE ID         : CVE-2017-11173

Jens Mueller discovered that an incorrect regular expression in rack-cors
may lead to insufficient restriction of CORS requests.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.4.0-1+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby-rack-cors packages.
