Ruby 2.7.8 Released

Posted by usa on 30 Mar 2023

Ruby 2.7.8 has been released.

This release includes security fixes. Please check the topics below for details.

This release also includes some build problem fixes. See the GitHub releases for further details.

After this release, Ruby 2.7 reaches EOL. In other words, this is expected to be the last release of Ruby 2.7 series. We will not release Ruby 2.7.9 even if a security vulnerability is found (but could release if a severe regression is found). We recommend all Ruby 2.7 users to start migration to Ruby 3.2, 3.1, or 3.0 immediately.
