CWE-79

Description

An issue was discovered in the gon gem before gon-6.4.0 for Ruby. MultiJson does not honor the escape_mode parameter to escape fields as an XSS protection mechanism. To mitigate, json_dumper.rb in gon now does escaping for XSS by default without relying on MultiJson.

Affected configurations

• gon project gon (< 6.4.0) • canonical ubuntu linux 18.04 • debian debian linux 9.0
