CVE-2012-5664 literally says:

And both Debian and Ubuntu have marked this CVE as NOT-FOR-US because of
this (they don't ship Authlogic gem).
So I think the description for CVE-2012-5664 is incorrect and should be
amended ASAP. Otherwise it will lead to confusion. People not using
Authlogic would believe (wrongly) that they are not affected.

Thank you for the clarifying email and link to the very useful blog
post. I had indeed said NOT-FOR-US because we don't ship authlogic, but
we certainly do ship Active Record. I've updated Ubuntu's triage data.
