+
+Ruby on Rails is the dominant Ruby web framework. Eight CWE-407 defects confirmed:
+2 HIGH in the ORM eager-loader and callback system; 6 MEDIUM across Enumerable utilities,
+schema tools, boot hooks, and enum definition.
+
+**rails-0001 — Preloader::Batch future_tables (HIGH)**
+
+`activerecord/.../preloader/batch.rb:24` — `loaders.reject { |l| future_tables.include?(l.table_name) }` where `future_tables` is an Array (result of `.map.uniq`). Called inside `until branches.empty?` loop. O(D×L×F) where D=preload tree depth, L=runnable loaders, F=future table count. Fires on every `includes(...)` call. Fix: `.to_set` replaces `.uniq`. **210× op reduction.**
+
+**rails-0002 — Callbacks chain.index (HIGH)**
+
+`activesupport/.../callbacks.rb:803` — `chain.insert(chain.index(callback), ...)` inside `filters.each` across all class descendants in `skip_callback`. `chain.index` is O(C) on Array-backed CallbackChain. O(D×F×C²) total. Fix: build `position_map` hash before filter loop. **51× op reduction.**
+
+**rails-0003 — Enumerable#excluding (MEDIUM)**
+
+`activesupport/.../enumerable.rb:134` — `elements.include?(element)` Array O(E) inside `reject` loop. Available on all Enumerables via `Array#excluding` / `#without`. Fix: `elements.to_set` before reject. **475× op reduction.**
+
+**rails-0004 — Enumerable#in_order_of (MEDIUM)**
+
+`activesupport/.../enumerable.rb:201` — `series.index(v.public_send(key))` Array O(S) inside `sort_by` block (called O(N log N) times). Fix: `series_map = series.each_with_index.to_h` before sort. **151× op reduction.**
+
+**rails-0005/0006 — SchemaDumper + PostgreSQL schema_statements (MEDIUM)**
+
+`schema_dumper.rb:249,255` — exclusion/unique constraint name Arrays; Array#include? in two `indexes.reject` passes. `postgresql/schema_statements.rb:139` — include_columns Array in columns.reject!. Fix: `.to_set` on constraint names. **130× op reduction.**
+
+**rails-0007 — lazy_load_hooks @run_once (MEDIUM)**
+
+`activesupport/.../lazy_load_hooks.rb:84` — `@run_once[name].include?(block)` where `@run_once[name]` is Array (line 48: `Hash.new { |h, k| h[k] = [] }`). Called per hook per `run_load_hooks` invocation at boot. Fix: `Hash.new { |h, k| h[k] = Set.new }`. **251× op reduction.**
+
+**rails-0008 — Enum value_method_names (MEDIUM)**
+
+`activerecord/.../enum.rb:273,419` — `value_method_names.include?` inside `pairs.each` loop (O(E²)) and in `detect_negative_enum_conditions!` (O(E²)). Fix: `value_method_names = Set.new`. **1,000× op reduction.**
