Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2013-1947 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 15:47 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.

## Affected components
- RubyGems kelredd-pruview: affected <= 0.5.0

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- RubyGems kelredd-pruview: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on kelredd-pruview.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
