REXML is an XML toolkit for Ruby. The REXML gem before 3.3.6 has a DoS
vulnerability when it parses an XML that has many deep elements that have
same local name attributes. If you need to parse untrusted XMLs with tree
parser API like REXML::Document.new, you may be impacted to this vulnerability.
If you use other parser APIs such as stream parser API and SAX2 parser API,
this vulnerability is not affected. The REXML gem 3.3.6 or later include the
patch to fix the vulnerability.

A buffer-overread issue was discovered in StringIO 3.0.1, as
distributed in Ruby 3.0.x through 3.0.6 and 3.1.x through
3.1.4. The ungetbyte and ungetc methods on a StringIO can
read past the end of a string, and a subsequent call to
StringIO.gets may return the memory value. 3.0.3 is the main
fixed version; however, for Ruby 3.0 users, a fixed version
is stringio 3.0.1.1, and for Ruby 3.1 users, a fixed version
is stringio 3.0.1.2.
