+ <blockquote cite="http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2013/02/22/rexml-dos-2013-02-22/">
+ <p>Unrestricted entity expansion can lead to a DoS vulnerability in
+ REXML. (The CVE identifier will be assigned later.) We strongly
+ recommend to upgrade ruby.
+ </p>
+ <p>When reading text nodes from an XML document, the REXML parser can
+ be coerced in to allocating extremely large string objects which
+ can consume all of the memory on a machine, causing a denial of
+ service.
