ruby-json: Ruby JSON is a JSON implementation for Ruby
CVE-2026-54696 is fixed in ruby-json on 1 platform by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-54696 (version 2.19.9+dfsg-1), released July 3, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
Ruby JSON is a JSON implementation for Ruby. Versions 2.9.0 through 2.19.8 are vulnerable to heap buffer overflow when the JSON generator is provided with an oversized streamed object. When streaming to an IO JSON.dump(obj, io) and JSON::State#generate(obj, io) can write past the internal JSON generator buffer when a streamed object contains an attacker-controlled string near 16 KB. Exploitation would result in a reliable process crash/denial of service. This issue has been fixed in version 2.19.9.
