Naming/RescuedExceptionsVariableName invalid report

[mensfeld]

When I run rubocop 0.67.2 with following code:

handled = [StandardError]

begin
  raise StandardError
rescue *handled
  false
end

I get the following error:

test.rb:5:8: C: Naming/RescuedExceptionsVariableName: Use e instead of *handled.
rescue *handled
       ^^^^^^^^

Expected behavior

I should not get this offense.

Actual behavior

Thanks for reporting this. The cop is certainly rough around the edges, but we'll fix it soon.

It's not stale - it's still present.

Yeah, there's a PR that targets it, but it got stuck a while ago. See #6908
