+ <blockquote cite="https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/rubyonrails-security/4_YvCpLzL58">
+ <p>When parsing certain JSON documents, the JSON gem can be coerced in
+ to creating Ruby symbols in a target system. Since Ruby symbols
+ are not garbage collected, this can result in a denial of service
+ attack.</p>
+ <p>The same technique can be used to create objects in a target system
+ that act like internal objects. These "act alike" objects can be
+ used to bypass certain security mechanisms and can be used as a
+ spring board for SQL injection attacks in Ruby on Rails.</p>
