NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ruby-doc package and not the ruby-doc package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

Bundler prior to 2.1.0 uses a predictable path in /tmp/, created with insecure permissions as a storage location for gems, if locations under the user's home directory are not available. If Bundler is used in a scenario where the user does not have a writable home directory, an attacker could place malicious code in this directory that would be later loaded and executed.
