Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora issued a patch for rubygem-json to rectify CVE-2020-10663, including backported solutions to the vulnerability.
A security flaw was found on rubygem-json prior to 2.3.0 which was now assigned as CVE-2020-10663

Summary

This is a implementation of the JSON specification according

to RFC 4627 in Ruby.

You can think of it as a low fat alternative to XML,

if you want to store data to disk or transmit it over

a network rather than use a verbose markup language.

A security flaw was found on rubygem-json prior to 2.3.0 which was now assigned

as CVE-2020-10663. This new rpm contains backport fixes for this issue.
