Take your transportation and head to Lowes or your local hardware store. Ask the sales person to direct you to the product "Plumber' s Epoxy Putty". Technology is constantly evolving, so be sure to ask the sales person if there is a better product on the market at this time that will do a better job for the type of repair that you need to make.

Pay for your purchase and take your product home. Make sure you take your time to read the directions carefully, including all warnings for this product. Misuse of a product will lead to a faulty repair. Epoxy putty contains steel and dries in minutes. This product can be used to repair holes in plaster, galvanized pipe, ceramic and for other general purpose repairs. Simplistic but it works.

This is great advice and will work as a temporary solution, but it is best to replace the hose. Still really good advice, and I have done this in the past ;-) -
