I agree. The fact that a large number of Ruby/Rails apps fall behind in terms of keeping dependencies up-to-date speaks more to Ruby's adoption than to its inherent insecurity. Without comparing these figures to other languages/frameworks (and accounting for flaws in completely custom-built apps), it's hard to draw any real conclusions here.
