def initialize
  message = "Ruby offers a function called \"eval\" which will dynamically build new Ruby code based on Strings. It also has a number of ways to call system commands. While the power of these commands is quite useful, extreme care should be taken when using them in a Rails based application. Usually, its just a bad idea. If need be, a whitelist of possible values should be used and any input should be validated as thoroughly as possible. The Ruby Security Reviewer's Guide has a section on injection and there are a number of OWASP references for it, starting at the top: Command Injection."
