"A vulnerability was found in ruby-yajl, an interface to Yajl, a JSON
stream-based parser library. When a crafted JSON file is supplied to
Yajl::Parser.new.parse, the whole ruby process crashes with a SIGABRT
in the yajl_string_decode function in yajl_encode.c. This may result
in a denial of service.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
1.1.0-2+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby-yajl packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
