Ruby Gemspec Analyzer

Experimental: This analyzer is considered experimental. While this analyzer may be useful and provide valid results more testing must be completed to ensure that the false negative/false positive rates are acceptable.

OWASP dependency-check includes an analyzer that will scan Ruby Gem specifications. The analyzer will collect as much information as it can about the Gem. The information collected is internally referred to as evidence and is grouped into vendor, product, and version buckets. Other analyzers later use this evidence to identify any Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) identifiers that apply.

Note: It is highly recommended that Ruby projects use bundler-audit. It is possible to incorporate the results of bundle-audit into the dependency-check report(s) by using the bundle-audit analyzer.
