The Debian security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Debian:unstable.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ruby-gon package and not the ruby-gon package as distributed by Debian.
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.
