In all version of the yajl-ruby gem prior to 1.3.0 for Ruby, when a crafted JSON file is supplied to the parser, the whole ruby process crashes with a SIGABRT in the yajl_string_decode function in yajl_encode.c. This results in the whole ruby process terminating and potentially a denial of service.
