Oracle Linux: CVE-2020-10663: ELSA-2021-2588: ruby:2.6 security, bug fix, and enhancement update (MODERATE) (Multiple Advisories)

The JSON gem through 2.2.0 for Ruby, as used in Ruby 2.4 through 2.4.9, 2.5 through 2.5.7, and 2.6 through 2.6.5, has an Unsafe Object Creation Vulnerability. This is quite similar to CVE-2013-0269, but does not rely on poor garbage-collection behavior within Ruby. Specifically, use of JSON parsing methods can lead to creation of a malicious object within the interpreter, with adverse effects that are application-dependent.
A flaw was found in rubygem-json. While parsing certain JSON documents, the json gem (including the one bundled with Ruby) can be coerced into creating arbitrary objects in the target system. This is the same issue as CVE-2013-0269.
